• Next you need to perform double crochet. How to start crocheting? For beginners, the first columns are difficult, because there is no skill yet. But by the end of the work you will notice that the hands themselves already remember all the movements. The double crochet is done as follows: the hook enters the air loop and grabs the thread that stretches out. Once again, the hook picks up the working thread, which stretches through the loops. The easiest way to understand how this is done is to look. Ask someone who knows how to crochet to be shown once. This will be enough.
• Alternate two rows of columns with yarns of different colors.
• When the entire fabric is finished, tie two short sides of the napkin in single crochet columns. Fasten the end of the thread.
