Extra (shift) stitch

A very common term in crocheting is the extra stitch.

So what is this loop?

When crocheting, almost always the marker of the beginning of the round
is shifted to the right side. It is necessary to align it. And how to do it?

You just need to crochet another 1sc at the end of the round and shift the
marker by one stitch.
The second stitch becomes the first and the first becomes the last. This is
the shift (extra) stitch.

And the most important thing! This stitch is not included in crocheting.

Abbreviations
MR - magic ring
sc - single crochet
hdc - half double crochet
hdcinc - half double crochet increase (2hdc in one stitch)
dc - double crochet
inc - increase (2 sc in one stitch)
dec- decrease (2 sc together)
ch - chain
t-ch - turning chain
sl st - slip stitch
FPdc - front post double crochet
Bobble st - crochet the necessary number of dc in one stitch with a common top
BLO - back loops only
(...) - number in brackets means a number of stitches in a round

2. Using sewing pins, fix the blouse on the doll. Now we need to decide how many chains we
need. It is advisable to crochet the next round directly on the doll. Or mark with markers in which
places we need to crochet a chain for hands. Begin to crochet: (7 sl st, ch9, skip 8sc of the
previous round, 12 sl st, 9ch, skip 8sc of the previous row we skip, 7sl st). Make sure the arms fit
through the crocheted holes. If not, increase the chain. IMPORTANT! The number of stitches in
the total should be a multiple of 4. Next, move on to crocheting the collar.
