The pattern is written using crochet terminology common in the US.
It is recommended to use a stitch marker to mark the first stitch of each round to
avoid getting lost.

IMPORTANT NOTE BEFORE STARTING TO CROCHET
End the row by slip stitching.
Most of my patterns use the 'end the row with slip stitch' technique. I feel it
makes the stitches more aligned and prevents the finished piece from skewing
to one side. Of course, you can also use the spiral technique, but the feet or arms
might end up in the wrong position.
I feel that some crocheters may not be familiar with the correct operation of the
finishing part, so please pay more attention to this section.
for the end the row :
To ensure proper end-of-row placement, you should use a stitch marker to mark
your first crochet stitch.
After that, thread the needle through --> take the yarn and pull it through to
execute the slip stitch. (images 2, 3, 4) After that, gently pull to tighten it a bit.
Yarn over and thread it through again to make a chain stitch, and then make the
first crochet stitch again where you slipped into to finish the row. (images 5~11)

chain 3 for TR or TRC.

You need to end the round with a slip stitch and start each new row with a chain.
The first stitch of the new row will crochet into the slip stitch from the previous
row. This way, you will maintain the correct stitch count for each row.
