The slip stitch is the shortest of all crochet stitches and adds almost no height. It is mainly used to join rounds, move yarn across stitches without adding height, and create a neat edge. Essential for working in the round.
Insert your hook into the specified stitch.
Yarn over by wrapping the yarn over your hook from back to front.
Pull the yarn through both the stitch and the loop on your hook in one smooth motion.
One slip stitch is complete — the stitch sits flat with almost no height.
To join a round, insert your hook into the first stitch of the round and slip stitch to close.
