Extra stitch

A very common term in crocheting is the extra stitch.

So what is this stitch?

When crocheting.aimost 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 sc 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
