**What’s backwards knitting? Why do we do that? When knitting a christmas tree, we usually knit along the way, but in the single crochet, the even number of turns is in reverse of the last turn( odd number of turns). By the way, there’s a difference between the front and back in crocheting; therefore, we have to knit it in reverse. Just remember that the last stitch in the previous direction is the first stitch next.
