I don't know where else you can see this stitch being done, but I bet you can figure it out. It is worked just like you are doing a regular stitch except for where you first put your hook. If you look at a crochet stitch you will see that there are essentially three parts, : the two loops on top (a front one and a back one), and then the one on the bottom. With BLO, instead of putting your hook under the two top loops, you skip over the first top loop ( the one that is closest to you) and put your hook under just the back one. Proceed from that point just the way you would with a regular stitch. I sure hope this helps!
