A lot of crochet patterns that call for working in the round start out using a Magic Loop (or Magic Ring). I have a horrible memory and often have to look up a tutorial on the internet to remember how to make one. So I am now posting on my own blog a tutorial on how to make a Magic Loop so I will no longer have to hunt one down on someone else's blog. I hope it also helps you out. Add this page to your Bookmarks for future reference. NOTE: I do not own these pictures. I was unable to take visible pictures of each step, so I borrowed some from the internet Step 1: Leaving a 4" tail, make a loop with the yarn and hold it together where the yarn meets Step 2: Still holding the yarn with your left hand, insert the crochet hook through the ring and draw the yarn up through the ring Step 3: make a small loop on your crochet hook Step 4: Yarn over and pull through the loop on the hook Step 5:One loop on hook Step 6: Insert the hook through the ring again and pull the yarn through. Two loops on hook Step 7: Yarn over and draw through two loops on hook (Single crochet) Step 8: Continue making SC until you have the number the pattern calls for Step 9: Make sure that the SCs are made over the loop AND the tail. Step 10: Pull the tail until the stitches meet (creating a round) Step 11: Join the stitches with a slip stitch (sl st) and your foundation round is complete!!
