Crocheting through both sides of an arm/leg/ear/tail together.

Image
In almost all of my patterns the arms, legs, ears, tail, and other pieces are done by chaining 1 and crocheting through both sides at the same time. These pictures will help you understand what this means... Ch 1, fold in half Put your crochet hook through both sides, making a sc. Sc across in this same way.
