Alright, so you actually successfully did everything I show in this tutorial, right? :) If so, that's great! To continue working in circles, you need to move to the next row by making chain stitches (a turning chain) and start making increases. I'm actually working on the flat circle tutorial, so stay tuned for that or look for 'flat circle' patterns in the meantime!
Thank you so much for this video! I am left handed & have watched so many videos trying to achieve this (even other left handed ones) & this is the only video that has helped me successfully make a magic circle!
Also for people saying that this video wasn’t helpful try slowing the video down, that along with watching each step a few times really helped me. This method was so much easier to actually see each step compared to the ones that wrap the yarn around their hand in an “X”.
Wow, I'm so glad it worked for you! This method is really the easiest I know and it's been stuck in my head ever since I've learned it. There's nothing better than KNOWING how to do something and not having to go back to the tutorial every time you want to use the technique.
It’s nice to find an actual left handed crocheting tutorial video! Everyone else is right handed and I just can’t do magic circles that way. I’m so glad I found this video😊
After months of trying to make a magic ring, finally l have found someone l can understand. I have so many projects l would like to try but have been avoiding. Thank-you
Hi! Do you mean that your magic circle is too tight to work the very first round of stitches inside? If so, try starting with a longer yarn tail - you will have more room to work. If you mean the next round of stitches (that is, the second one), the tightness of the magic ring shouldn't matter, because you work in the stitches of round one. If these are too tight to insert your hook in, try switching to a bigger hook size for some time, until you figure out how it works. Hope it helps!
What do you mean by 'next row'? It sounds like you might be tightening the loop too early. It must remain quite loose until you've worked all of your round 1 stitches inside.
I will keep trying but I keep trying to pull the string so it goes through but it just won’t. I am pulling the tail it just doesn’t budge from the yarn. Trying to make my wobble because it needs a magic ring. Any fixes?
Hi! Sorry to hear that :( Do I understand correctly that you can't tighten your magic ring? Firstly, are you sure you insert the hook in the right place before starting with the first round of stitches? If the mistake is in the construction, the ring may not want to close. You can also try using bigger hook, because the problem may lay in the tightness of the stitches. And, sorry if it's a dumb idea, but this tutorial is for left-handed crocheters - are you left-handed? Hope it helps a bit!
Whys everyone saying this was easy and im bawling my eyes out over it?
Same. I cant get a tutorial that works
sorry to hear that :( which part are you having trouble with?
@Crochetpedia i can get the circle but i cant figure out how to crochet on top pf the circle

Me to it's got me going crazy trying to learn, so ready to give up

Wonderful!
This was crazy easy! I have been struggling with magic rings forever! You are a life saver! THANK YOU SO MUCH!
So glad!!!
Thank you! This was so much better for me than other methods! I'll use this from now on!
so glad to hear it!
How come my magic circle is too tight to actually do my next row? I am following the steps as closely as I possibly can! This is so frustrating.

@@Crochetpedia yeah and my yarn tail is almost 6 inches long. I don't know what I am doing wrong 😥

@@Crochetpedia I'm supposed to do 4 single crochet into the magic circle, tighten, and do my next round, per the pattern.
thank you - so good.
Thank you too!

@@Crochetpedia hi yes I was born a leftie and I found a different technique that works thank you though!
I cant get any tutorials to work for me. Even this one. I am never going to learn how to do this stupid circle!
Hey, don't give up! Go slowly and try out as many tutorials as you can. One of them will finally work for you :)
Not easy. I just can't find a video that works
sorry to hear that :( it's definitely the easiest method I know!
This was not helpful and u did not make it easy for beginning left handed people trying to do a magic ring
sorry to hear that! maybe some other crocheter will be able to explain it better to you :)
