Guides for the Special Techniques:

Single Crochet Two Together: This technique is used to decrease the number of stitches in a row. To do this, insert your hook into the first stitch, yarn over, and pull up a loop. Insert your hook into the second stitch, yarn over, and pull up a loop. You should now have three loops on your hook. Yarn over and pull through all three loops.
Surface Slip Stitch: This technique is used to attach pieces together without leaving a visible seam. To do this, thread your yarn through the needle and insert it into the first piece. Pull the yarn through and then insert the needle into the second piece. Pull the yarn through and repeat until all of the pieces are attached.
