there is not a wrong way to crochet, but there is a wrong or cheat way of holding the crochet hook, hold it like a spoon. alot of beginners hold it wrong.
I have to disagree with the above answer. Some people hold a crochet hook "knife" style, the body of the hook held within the hand, and some hold the hook "pencil" style, with the shaft of the hook laying on top of the hand. Either is correct, or anyway you hold the hook is correct if the stitches are coming out correctly, and the hold is comfortable. Some people train themselves to use both holds or even either hand in order to decrease fatigue from holding it only one way. -smcm

How do you do a reverse single crochet?
Reverse single crochet means to turn the item the opposite way you were crocheting and single crochet as normal-just in the opposite direction. For instance if you crochet from right to left as normal, you would chain one, turn the item around so you are facing the opposite side (the 'wrong side') and single crochet around. The stitches will then face the opposite way from the rest giving it a decorative edge.

What does purl mean in crochet?
As far as I'm aware, there is no "purl" in crochet, but there is in knitting.Knitting has basically two stitches, a "knit" and a "purl."In a knit stitch, the yarn is drawn through the previous row, by passing through from below. In a purl stitch, the yarn is drawn through the previous row, from above. This creates an effect, where on one side, a knit stitch appears to be knit, and on the other side, the same stitch appears to be purled. This explains why directions for knitting often speak of the "right (or front) side" or the "wrong (or back) side" of a project.Crochet has stitches which are a slip stitch, a chain stitch, a single crochet, a half crochet, a double crochet, a triple crochet, a double treble crochet, and even a triple treble crochet. I have not seen any patterns which call for a larger than triple treble crochet stitch.
