How do I move the points when using clipping paths?

I watched a YouTube video of someone using clipping paths to outline a purse. When they worked around corners and curves they were able to grab the end of the line and move the dot back up against the image. The problem is they do it but never explain how they do it. I've watched 4 or 5 different videos and they all can do it but not one explains how. Every time I grab the dot and try to move it, it just creates a new Anchor Point.

What am I doing wrong?

Thank you,

Jessica

While the point is selected, you can use the arrow keys to nudge the point. You can also press ctrl/cmd to turn the cursor into the point selection tool, so that you can move it. Pressing the alt/opt key will allow you to change the type of point.
