 Step 1: Starting Position

• Place your hook into the next stitch.
• Ensure you have three strands of yarn over your hook.
• The hook should be positioned in front of the working yarn, with the tip of the hook facing towards you.

Step 2: Yarn Over

• Execute a yarn over by moving the hook downwards, below and behind the working yarn.
• The hook should hook onto the working yarn during this movement.

For Step 3: Pull Through First Two Loops

• Carefully pull the hooked yarn through the first two loops on your crochet hook.
• After pulling the yarn through, shift your hook towards your yarn hand slightly to secure the new loop on your hook.
• At this point, you should have two loops remaining on your hook.

Step 4: Yarn Over Again

• Keeping the hook in front of the working yarn and with the tip facing you, perform another yarn over.
• Again, move the hook below and behind the working yarn to capture it.

Step 5: Complete the Stitch

• Pull the captured yarn through both loops that are currently on the hook.
• Successfully pulling through will leave you with only one loop on the hook.
• This final loop represents the completion of a single crochet stitch.

Remember, the rhythm and motions of a single crochet stitch become more intuitive and fluid with practice. Leading to uniform and even stitches throughout your crochet projects.
