How to crochet a magic loop
Many times crochet squares, circles etc start with a ring of chains leaving a hole in the middle. Sometimes you don't want that and then this technique comes handy.
Hold on to tail and wrap the yarn around your left finger. Work sc (US)/dc (UK) around the yarn loop and the tail, when you have your desired number of sts, pull the tail to snug up the middle. Continue crochet around in the sts.
After half the video we show you how to start and work dc (US)/ tr (UK) around the ring.
You must read the pattern to be able to follow. You’ll find patterns where you can use this technique by clicking on the pictures below.

Denne videoen var flott laget. Veldig lett og forstå hvordan man lager en magisk ring etter å ha sett denne. Tusen takk :)

29.07.2020 - 18:20Till Eva, jag är vänsterhänt men var tvungen att lära mig virka & sticka med höger - då slöjdfröken inte kunde lära mig på vänster vis. Fick titta på fröken och "apa" efter helt enkelt. Gått utmärkt m högern i alla år ☆

Hej Nej det har vi dessvärre inte. Mvh DROPS Design
06.03.2020 - 14:06How big should the magic circle be, please? Thank you.

Dear Claudia, dont worry about it - size of magic circle is not so important as you will "close" it (by pulling the strand) afterwards. Happy crafting!
