Hello my name is Anna. This is the second step in crocheting. The first was a slip knot (I have a video for that) and the second step is creating your foundation change. It's very simple, nothing scary about it. When you crochet hook is in your slipknot you yarn over and pull thru your slip knot. Chain 1 is complete. Yarn over and pull thru again, chain 2 is complete.
