Special stitches

• crochet in 3rd loop = instead of working crochet stitches in top loops of the previous round, you should find a 3rd loop on the wrong side or back side of the crochet piece. This 3rd loop is located on the wrong side just under the top 2 loops. Start to make a crochet stitch you want as normal way. When you inserting hook into the loop in the previous row just skipped the top 2 loops and turn a crochet piece forward and insert the hook in 3rd loop, Finish the stitch as normal.
• hdc2tog = yo, [insert the hook in next st, yo, pull back through the st] 2 times, yo, pull back through all the 4 loops on the hook.

Notes:

• Beg ch does not count as st.
