What is a Slip Stitch?

A slip stitch (abbreviated as sl st) is the shortest and simplest crochet stitch. It’s often used to:

• Join rounds

• Move your yarn to a new spot

• Create a flat, neat edge

• Add a decorative detail

✨ How to Make a Slip Stitch:

1. Insert your hook into the stitch or space indicated.

2. Yarn over (wrap the yarn over your hook).

3. Pull the yarn through both the stitch and the loop on your hook in one motion.

That’s it! One quick movement and the stitch is done.
