How to Crochet Twisted Single Crochet Stitch

1. Insert the hook in next stitch, like you would do for regular single crochet. Yarn over and pull up a loop. You have 2 loops on your hook (keep both loops on hook loose),

2. Turn the hook 360° counter clockwise (loops remain on hook),

3. Yarn over and pull a yarn through both loops. It can be difficult to pull through the loops on the hook after the twist, so be sure to keep both those loops loose.
