    Instructions

    The Spruce / Mollie Johanson

    1. Make a Loop in the Yarn End

    Loop the end of the yarn in a lowercase "e" shape. The yarn that's
    coming from the skein should cross over the loose end.

    It may help to hold this in your hand as you make this starting loop,
    so you're ready to continue in the next step.

    If you're left-handed, flip this to a backward e with the working


    yarn still on top of the yarn end.
    :
    2. Insert the Hook in the Circle

    While holding the loop in place, insert the hook in the middle of the
    circle of yarn. Wrap the working yarn over your hook from back to
    front. This is exactly like any other yarn over.
    :
    3. Draw the Yarn Through the Circle

    Draw the yarn up through the circle.

    This can feel a little awkward at first because the circle is loose.
    Hold the crossed point of the circle as you draw up the loop of
    yarn and it will hold.
    :
    4. Yarn Over to Start a Chain Stitch

    Continue holding the circle of yarn as you make a turning chain.

    Yarn over from back to front.


    :
    5. Complete the Chain Stitch

    Draw the hook through the loop on the hook to complete a chain
    stitch.

    This tutorial shows how to start a magic circle with single crochet
    stitches, so this first turning chain only needs one chain stitch. If
    you're starting with other stitches, use the number of chains
    needed for a turning chain with that size stitch.
    :
    6. Insert the Hook and Start a Single Crochet

    Now it's time to start your first single crochet stitch.

    Insert the hook into the center of the ring, yarn over, and draw up a
    loop.
    :
    7. Complete the First Single Crochet

    Yarn over and draw the yarn through both loops on your hook to
    finish the single crochet stitch.

    At this point, your starting circle of yarn should feel a little more
    secure. The loose end can still pull and move, so make sure you
    don't tug at it while you work.
    :
    8. Add More Single Crochet Stitches to the Circle

    Work as many stitches as needed for the pattern you're working


    on. The ring may be quite open, but that's okay.
    :
    9. Join the Ring of Stitches

    Pull the end of the yarn to start tightening the ring. This brings the
    turning chain and last stitch closer together.

    Join the circle with a slip stitch.


    :
    10. Pull the Yarn End to Close the Magic Circle

    Close the circle the rest of the way by pulling the end so it's as
    tight as you want it.

    Because this technique allows you to tighten the middle, it also


    makes it possible for the center to loosen. Be sure to secure the
    end of the yarn well so your work doesn't start to open up with
    use.
