Let’s make the Magic Ring step by step!
Step 1
Roll the yarn around the index finger 2 times to make 2 big loops
Step 2
Insert the hook underneath the 2 big loops.
Step 3
Yarn over, pull the yarn toward the 2 big loops and create a little loop.
Step 4
Hook at the little loop, yarn over again and pull through the little loop.
Step 5
Go under the original 2 big loops, yarn over, pull through the big loops, and see, there are 2 loops on the hook.
Half way to the first stitch on the magic ring!
Step 6
Now, let’s finish the first stitch.
2 loops on the hook, yarn over, pull the yarn through the 2 loops.
Bravo! the first stitch is done!
Step 7
Let’s practise one more time of how to make a stitch on the magic ring.
Step 8
This time we use 6 stitches (it may vary depending on your project) to form the magic ring. Pull a tail to avoid losing a stitch while tightening the ring.
Step 9
There is another tail which is the beginning of the skein of yarn (A).
Hold A, pull it slighlty till B is half way down (shown as the picture below).
Release A, pull B till C is all the way down.
Release B, pull A tightly.
Step 10
Here you are, this is the magic ring. Depending on your project, you may start by slip stitch or spiral crochet method for the next round.
I hope you find this tutorial useful and help you have a smooth start of your crochet journey! Bon Voyage 🙂
