What is a BLO how do you make that stitch??? Can someone help me.
BLO means “Back Loop Only” – if you look at the space you are about to work into, you’ll notice your hook normally goes under two “loops” (a front loop and a back loop) – in this case, insert your hook from the top and catch only that back loop.
