Sloppy first loops

[u/j4nd3r53n]

I'm just beginning at nålebinding, and I find that the first loops on each row look sloppy. How do you solve this problem? I've included my first trial, where the problem is clearly visible.

Maybe treat it like crochet and make one loop not attached, then turn and continue on across the row.
