MLK + MLP: How to knit the loop stitch from the knit (right) side or purl (wrong) side

The loop stitch adds such a unique, textural element to knit fabric. Most people don't realize it can be worked from both the wrong side or the right side of the fabric!
Here I demonstrate how to work the MLK (make loop knitwise) and MLP (make loop purlwise) featured in these patterns:

Great tutorial!! But doesn’t it deacrese stitches when you cast of after making the loop ?

[@TwoOfWandsKnits]

No because you are working into the stitch twice ;)
