How do you front post double crochet in the corresponding stitch 2 rows below in crocheting?

At the stitch you want to have a front post, you do a normal double crochet, except you drop down to the 2nd row down to insert your hook. When you pull it through, hold your yarn loosely in your left hand and gently pull it up to the level of the row you are currently working on.

What does post mean in crochet?
The word "post" in crochet is referring to the whole stitch--generally a "tall" stitch (such as a double crochet, triple crochet, etc).The reason the instructions refer to the stitch in the row below, is so the crocheter understands that you are to stitch around the stitch below--the "post" of the stitch. Otherwise, if the instructions stated that you were to double crochet the next stitch, you would understand that you would be double crocheting into the top of the stitch below, versus crochet around the length of the stitch.You also notice that the instructions will say to "back post double crochet (bpdc)" which means to bring your stitch around the post from the back position. So, "front post, double crochet (fp dc)" would mean to bring your stitch in from the front side of your work.

Yes, with crocheting that should look fine. I wouldn't advise using a whip stitch with knitting as it will show and not look very good. But with crochet, because of the way the yarn loops around in the stitches, a whip stitch will not be particularly noticeable.

How do you crochet with your finger?
To crochet using your fingers only, use the same procedure as when using a hook, but just use your fingers instead. You will end up using your forefinger as a "hook" holding the parts of the stitch on your finger, and "hooking" your finger to "draw through" the material to make the stitch. I would hazard that the "best" stitches to make using a finger crochet technique would be the shorter stitches--slip stitch, single crochet, half double crochet, and double crochet. I think that with taller stitches, you might begin to not have room on your forefinger to "hold" the loops necessary to make the stitches. Look at the attached video link and see finger crocheting single crochet stitches is being done.
