How To Make A Chain Magic Ring?

This tutorial teaches you how to crochet the Magic Ring, also known as the Magic Circle, and the Chain Loop. The Magic Ring is an adjustable starting round used for crochet amigurumi patterns, granny squares, and other projects. You can start with a foundation chain (usually 2-4 chains depending on the stitch) or the Magic Circle, also known as a magic loop or adjustable loop.

To create a magic ring, grab the yarn in a way that your working yarn is on the left and the yarn end is on the right. Make the simplest knot, but don’t tighten it. Start the magic ring with the first loop, which holds the ring together like normal. On that loop, do your three chains. From the top chain, do your dc.

To crochet the Magic Ring, start as you would a straight crochet, with a knot on your hook, and then Chain 2. Then, work the single crochets into the Magic Ring.

To crochet a Magic Ring, first make two loops of yarn around your fingers with the yarn ball on the right and the tail on the left. Then slide your crochet hook from the top chain to the bottom of the ring.
