Wrap the yarn around your thumb three times, keeping the loops snug but not too tight.Step 2: Weave the Yarn Across the Fingers

Pull the yarn around the back of your fingers, then bring it across the front, and back again to form a second row of loops.Step 4: Lift the Bottom Loops
Wrap the yarn around to create a new top loop. Starting at the index finger, pull the bottom loop up and over the loop above it. Repeat the same step on the middle finger. Then gently pull the bottom loop open and insert your finger through the hole to continue the stitch.Step 5: Continue Weaving and Finish the Crochet
Continue making new loops and weaving until the crochet reaches your desired length. Cut the excess yarn, leaving a tail long enough to secure the end.Step 6: Secure the Final Loop
Bring the yarn tail around and position it below the loops. Pull the yarn under and through the bottom loop to secure the stitch.Step 7: Lock the Remaining Loops
Pull the yarn tail under and through the top of the second loop. Then pull it under and through the bottom of the last loop to fully secure the crochet.Step 8: Remove and Tighten to Secure
