    Wow. Apparently I've been doing yarn under for decades. It's just what I found most comfortable with the way I move my hook.
  • @Nnycin
    i've always crocheted with cross stich almost since the start. idk how i did it but these stiches are very pretty
  • Honestly, if you have good stitch tension, yarn over can look equally as good as yarn under. I use both techniques depending on what pattern I'm doing, and I find that I like both equally. I don't have problems with holes or looseness at all with yarn over. Good yarn, good stitch tension, and above all the right hook size is key.
  • @galeh6904
    Thanks for the well-organized, succinct mini-lecture. I was doing my yarn under incorrectly.
  • @jillkent6134
    This has been an eye opener for me, I’ve only just realised that I do yarn over and I’ve often wondered why my stitches are so loose . I will give the yarn under a try.
  • @moonspider7
    Thank you very much! I just discovered this method and was stressing about it because I really want to do amigurumi. It feels alien to my hands right now, but I'm sticking at it :3
  • @beno7583
    I am very new to crochet and really appreciated your video. Very helpful, thank you!!!
  • @deeCee2646
    what do you do for a decrease? and also, what about a half double crochet stitch or even a double crochet stitch? Does this yarn under work with other stitches or just with a single crochet stitch??
  • Wow i didn't know that there is something like yarn over. I only learned yarn under without knowing that there is an other option 😅🤣
  • @those_eyes
    So, you use combo of under and over to complete the single crochet. I thought one would use under only! Thank you!
  • @celestek.2395
    Thank you!❤ Why do you add an “A” at the end of some words and not others? Just pure curiosity. I😊🌸😆
