Row 5 – Insert your hook into the next space in the fourth row below the hook. Pull up a loop, pulling the yarn up enough so that it’s even with the other loop on your hook. Yarn over and pull through both loops (just like a regular single crochet).
Row 9 and all other rows with spike stitches – Insert your hook into the next space in the fourth row below the hook – into the top of the previous spike stitch. Pull up a loop, pulling the yarn up enough so that it’s even with the other loop on your hook. Yarn over and pull through both loops (just like a regular single crochet).
