Single Crochet (SC)The most basic working stitch. Insert hook, yarn over, pull up a loop, yarn over, pull through both.
⬜
Working in RoundsInstead of turning, you keep going around in the same direction. Place a stitch marker at the start.
⬜
Increase (inc)Two SC into the same stitch. This makes the circle grow outward.

Closing the HoleThread tail through front loops of remaining stitches, pull tight to close.

Multi-Part ConstructionMaking separate pieces (head, body, ears, legs) and sewing them together into a finished animal.
