Yarn Over

This post is going to be short and sweet because yarn over is so simple to explain and grasp. (Here is a video just in case).

Yarn Over: 

This term is exactly how it sounds. It is simply placing the yarn the crochet hook. There are two ways of doing this. You can use your hook by bringing it towards yourself and in a circular motion taking it under the yarn and tugging slightly so the yarn settles in the hook. The other way is to simply take the yarn in your hand and placing it over the hook.
