Parts of a crochet stitch for lefties
When you’re a crochet beginner, you may ask yourself “where oh where does my crochet hook go next?” after almost every stitch you make. This tutorial explains the parts of a single crochet stitch, and how where you crochet your next stitch affects how your piece will look.
Each crochet stitch is made of a post and 2 top loops. The top loop can be broken down into a front loop and back loop.
The pictures below show the parts of a single crochet stitch, which is the stitch most commonly used in amigurumi.

And then where does the hook go?
How do you tell where to insert your hook into next? With the right side of your piece facing outwards, look at your piece from the top down and put your hook under the horizontal V immediately to the right of the stitch you just made. This is because as a lefty, you crochet clockwise whenever you crochet in the round.
