Chain Stitch:
A Chain Stitch connects a series of loop stitches together.

Bring your thread in from the back at point A. Go back in from the top into point A and bring it out again at point B. Loop the thread under the needle so that it is caught in place. Repeat by going back in from the top into point B and coming up again at point C.. Again be sure to catch the loop under the needle. When you have completed your chain, come up at point D and go in at point E catching the last loop in place. Tie off on the back.
