make a chain of 8 push your hook through the second to last chain, and pull through a loop continue until you get to the bottom when you get to the bottom, pull the string through two of the loops on your hook until you get to the last ones chain one and flip the leaf over repeat the proccess again on the other side (dont forget to count, you cannot forget to count, its so important) when your done repeating, chain one again push your hook through the middle chains and pull working yarn through the first loop on your hook twist your hook around, and then pull the yarn through the next loop on your hook repeat until you reach the bottom of the leaf when you chain the last chain, pull out the yarn to make it bigger and then flip the leaf over put your hook through the big loop, and tighten it then continue the single stitch until you want to make another leaf :) i hope this helps and im so sorry if its so wordy, i dont know all of the fancy terms
