How to Half Double Crochet

I am going to type out how to do the Half Double Crochet, but you really should watch the video.

What you need:
Yarn: Try a big skein of Red Heart from Walmart – the cheap stuff is good for practice.
Hook: G or H

With the chain in front of you, put the yarn over the hook (2 loops), then put the hook through the second chain from the hook.
