@@jasminegonzales305 BRO SAMe

This is still MEGGAAAAA hard😭 I AM TYPING THIS IN THE MIDDLE OF A MENTAL BREAKDOWNNNN
I was crying I almost grew it I. The garbage 😂
I just simply cannot crochet.... i have finally given up have watched sooo many tutorials and CANNOT fogure out how in the absolute world to do this..
Hello! I’m sorry you’re having trouble learning, but if you are in the beginning stages of learning how to crochet, then you’re not watching the right video. This video is just to learn how to do the magic circle and you don’t have to know how to do the magic circle if you’re just looking to learn. If you’re interested, I have a free masterclass that you can watch here. ua-cam.com/play/PLmobLoMZ1riTNFsxCena7K93Zsls6F2CF.html
I felt like that too for the heart
same it’s so frustrating
You can do it! I finally made my first granny square today! I had to try like a million times, you got this!
There are so many other videos on here and ppl teach differently, take some time and watch others it might be easier the way someone else explains it. Good luck you can do it if I can 😆 ni hate on this video just we all learn differently 💜🖤
I probably watched 12 different magic circle tutorials before this one. This one finally made sense 🎉
your saying the you had a hard time doing this gave me the confidence to keep trying!
Yes! 🙌🏻 This was my goal. I’m so glad I was able to give you some encouragement. We just have to be patient with ourselves sometimes… or get mad and try again later 😂 You got this!
I really like your tutorial. Thank you.
same here..
Excellent tutorial- thank you so much ! ❤
I am an absolute beginner on crocheting, and let me say. This is the first tutorial i have not had a mental breakdown on and i actually could figure out how to do a magic circle. Thank u so much!
Same
Your lucky this is ur first vid if it were any other.. but good job!
OMG I DID IT!!! Thank you!!!! I've watched so many videos and failed so many times... you taught me to do it right! Your slow and patient lesson actually clicked for me. Thank you so much!!!!
THANK YOU!! I am no longer in tears!! You are so patient and the BEST teacher!!
I have had the biggest tantrums all morning, watching so many different tutorials and simply not getting it. You have been a life saver. I’m now one step closer to making a little mushroom doll 😂❤️❤️
OMG!!! I can't thank you enough! For the past three years I have been watching numerous tutorials, videos, and instructions on 'how to do a magic circle'. Never could do it until YOUR video! Ty so much. You made it easy & explained it in a way that anyone could master it!
I just wanted to tell you that i am an extreme beginner and watched SO MANY videos and had to unravel my project countless times. Your video is the only one i found that has made sense and showed good angels so i could actually comprehend what’s going where. Being a full beginner I love that you taught this with only single crochets. Most of the circle videos do three chains and then i was so lost with them doing doubles and trebles like that’s too advanced for me at the moment 😅🤣 thank you for making this so comprehensive! I’ve been watching it on repeat at .5 speed 😂😂
Same
Thank you so much!!! 😊 I am not quite there but so far your video is the only one I have not been in tears over. It actually makes sense, you take the time to go through every single step. I had almost given up but now I think I am actually going to learn.
Now I realized that I’ve tried so many times from other vids that it got all torn up so now I have to get some new yarn because you made me realize it wasn’t that hard and not give up. Thank you!
I gave up on the first one and never went back. I love the single crochet way. Thanks so much, if it weren't for this I couldn't do it. You are wonderful
I’m so glad I could help!
Well I m crying n mad cause I watched u all night n been watching n trying for a week thought I had it nope toany circles thank u I wanted to make my daughter a pocket book from my area well I'll have to try the other handbag thank you n god bless cause someone said if I don't get magic circle I'll never crochet
@@marybeckett4777 Hi Mary, I’m not sure if you actually watched this video all the way through but if you haven’t, you should. In the video I explain that the magic circle is a good technique to learn but it is NOT mandatory to crochet in the round. This is why I included two alternative methods. So there’s no reason to give up. Maybe give the magic circle a break and use one of the other two methods I explained
I’m not even joking, after I tried this video I IMMEDIATELY got the magic circle! Tysm you’re such a life saver ❤❤❤
I've never even heard of the magic circle until today. Looks interesting. I've always done the second or the third method, usually the second method. I've actually never had anybody teach me crocheting, I just picked it up one day when I was 14 and fiddled around with some yarn and a crochet hook making doilies because I thought it was fun. I just figuered it out by looking at other peoples finished projects. I decided to look at some videos and pictures today for inspiration, because I haven't crocheted in ages, just to see what ideas people came up with for kerchiefs and stumbled across this.
:)
This is literally my first "lesson" since I started playing around at 14 and I'm now 47. Thanks for teaching me something new.
That's great that you've spent your entire crochet journey just being creative and figuring things out on your own! I'm glad I was able to teach you something new 😊
As I kept reading g OMG, I tried it. You are BRILLIANT! I don't know what you did differently then the 90 other YT vids I've watched...but I did it!! 🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🥰
I can’t thank you enough for the different methods for the magic circle. I thought I was going to go mad trying to make a damn circle!
I’ve tried so long to learn how to make a magic circle. I’ve looked for a slow easy tutorial for so long! Thank you so, so, so much for this tutorial! I’ve looked for so many tutorials and this one I actually did it! ❤❤❤
Thank you! Wow - getting that magic circle has been a struggle. You make it so clear that I was able to do it!
After weeks of trying to crochet I finally learned how. Thank you so much for being the first tutorial i've watched to actually make sense!
You are truly an angel from heaven! I’ve only gone mad for one evening trying to do the Magic Ring! Found your video and this morning, worked the 2 chain ring method and voila…success! I’m now into row 3 of a bucket hat pattern using a tape yarn….yeah!!!!
Omg I’ve finally done it after trying to for like 4 years, thank you SO muchhhhh!!!!!! 🎉
FINALLY!!! Thank you!! I knew there was an easier way. I love the second method. I’m all excited now to start my journey. Will be following you. Your video was great, clear and close n nice n slow. Thank you!!!
Awesome! I’m so happy to hear that! If you’re new to crochet and haven’t taken my Masterclass yet, I highly recommend it! You can find the full playlist here ua-cam.com/play/PLmobLoMZ1riTNFsxCena7K93Zsls6F2CF.html
I have spent the last 10 days, hours of each day, trying to learn how to make a magic circle. FINALLY DID IT AFTER USING YOUR VIDEO 😭 THANK YOU SO MUCH! I have been sooo frustrated and almost gave up but now I can make my daughter her crochet cat she’s been begging me for ❤
Me to
Thank you for the other options for the magic circle 🔵 🔴 The 3 finger method and securing a stitch before letting go of the circle is the 1 that works for me. Prior to that I was definitely brought to tears and thought it was hopeless.
Thank you again for all your amazing videos!
I watched every single video on UA-cam of how to start circle crochet ,I didn’t make it until watched this video.thanks
Great magic circle tutorial. I think the first technique, the magic circle would be best. I'm definitely going to use that one. Thanks!!
You are so welcome! Let me know how it turns out!
This was very helpful! I just started crocheting about two weeks ago and this was very helpful! For people that are just starting here are some things I did. If you have a family member that knows how to crochet. Ask them for some tips! I find it a lot easier in person than online. And keep practicing! I’m just learning the magic circle now but I know I’ll get there soon! This tutorial help very much and I appreciate very much!! Tysm!❤
I'm a seasoned crochter who has been using magic circle for years. I've never seen it done quite like this, but I LOVE it. I'm definitely changing my technique for magic circle. Thanks!
Thank you so much! I’m so glad you found it helpful even being a more advanced crocheter! ❤️
You have no idea how much this video helped!! ❤❤ You were really good at teaching veryyy slow, and that’s exactly what I needed! 😂 Sending a BUNCH of love your way❤!
Thank you so much! I’ve been wanting to crochet amigurumi and this is the first time I was able to do a magic circle!
Yay! I'm glad I could help!
THANK YOU for being the only person to actually explain the way to wrap it around your fingers!!!! everyone else just says wrap it around but doesn't show what way to do it
OMG THANKYOU SO MUCH this is so helpful honestly because whenever I pulled it before it would always tighten instead of making a circle and now it works and I can make my mushroom hat!!!❤️❤️❤️
I ❤️ the magic loop. Once I was able to see where the tail is I had no problem. I think the common problem is not knowing what end to work with. Funny enough I can’t get the chaining and going back into the the first chain to work. I think because I’ve always went through two strands. Great video.
Exactly! This is the fifth tutorial I've watched! I guess no one attempting to teach a stitch has learned its best if the student can see the tail so they can tell which threads to wrap! Omg I use to know! Seems I've forgotten! It also seems we have many teaching that do I have a clue how to teach! Lol they are here to chat! One person I shut off after 8 minutes of meaning less chatter. She still hadn't started! Oh well tomorrow ill go visit my neighbor
I’m just learning how to crochet and one thing that’s helped me know which stitch to go back to is a stitch marker. I bought a bag off Amazon for just a couple bucks and really thought they were an item I’d rarely use and only experienced people used them….boy was I wrong. They’ve been a huge help!! And I’ve only made a few things so far lol but i will put a marker on as the yarn is still on the hook so I know it’s going in the stitch I need, or I’ll put it on as soon as I finish that last stitch of the row. Then when I come back around I don’t have to guess where to slip stitch or something. They are so worth the $3!
I saw a video where they used a bobby pin to mark where you want to start and stop.
I am crying right now i dont even know how to do it
You're not alone. I am struggling also.😢
I have been trying to make Hermione from a kit I got last Christmas, first thing, make a magic circle. Haven't gotten anywhere with it. You've just made that possible, thank you so much 🥰
OMGGGGGG FINALLYYYY IT WORKED, AHHHHHH
THENKS SO MUCH !!! DONT KNOW WHAT I WOULD DO WITHOUT YOUUUUUU
TO EVERYONE OUT THERE STRUGGLING WITH THE MAGIC CIRCLE : DOT GIVE UP !!! IF IT CAN WORK FOR ME, IT CAN SURELY WORK FOR YOU ❤✨
Thank you so much all the other tutorials didn't make sense. I was about to quit and give up crochet forever then your video was my last hope.I watched this finally got my magic circle and now I can make stuffed animals,key chains etc. This just shows you sound never give up and quit just keep trying you WILL get it!
Thank you! I think I have the magic circle now. I've been crocheting/knitting/embroidering for 68 years and have never been able to successfully to the magic circle technique. You've made me a very happy crocheter!
Amazing! I'm so happy to hear that
Thank-you for the great tutorial,I love how you explain it .I haven't tried the magic circle before as I couldn't understand the other tutorials I watched,but now I will try it.As I now have the confidence.xx❤
Awesome! After you attempt it, come back and let me know how it went 😊
I'm so happy to finally find a tutorial that works. Maybe I was trying something to advanced right off the bat, but this was perfect! I finally was able to make a magic circle.
Wow....i taught myself to crochet granny squares on you tube but i always struggle with the starting circle.. After watching your tutorial, i realised i was leaving out the 6 slipstiches into the circle.. So much better now and easy to follow your step by step guide. 👍🏼
Thank you so much, I have gone mad trying to watch other tutorials showing how to do this!! Love the Xmas decoration vids, will be making those, big thumbs up to you, great teacher, happy Xmas 👍👍 love from uk.🇬🇧🇬🇧
Thanks so much! I'm so glad you're enjoying my videos!
I got the actual circle but got lost after. Im at work and need something to pass time this just makes me want to throw things lol.
same here!
I taught myself to crochet I have tried t do this but have had to give it up as I have severe me and fibromyalgia
Same as me too. Watched a lot other tutorials and tried for 4 days but still cannot do it. Luckily found this video, thanks Sigoni.
You are an excellent teacher. Your instructions seem to predict and answer just about any questions a beginner could have
Crochet does not love me yet, but I love crochet. So today I watched this in slow motion an impressive number of times and now I think that crochet is starting to like me. Thank you SO much Sigoni Macaroni :)
Good video and. Excellent instructions! I tried to do the magic ring several times with several other tutorials, and your was the only one that actually worked for me! Thanks so much!!!!!
I've watched 5 videos on how to do a magic circle and was about to give up but you finally made it easy enough to understand thank you so much!!
I’m so happy I could help!!
I was about to give up on trying and stick to knitting but this video. I JUS MADE A LIL CIRCLE ! I'm so happy. thank you so much for this video
Thank you so much I learned from my aunt once and I made the body of a mini yellow pig. When I finished it I tried to make an ear but I didn't know how to do this without her help. We don't see each other very much so I can't do this a lot but this helped so much that after doing both ears I can finally do this on my own. Thank you so much again This was the only video I found that made sense. ❤❤❤
Edit I am now doing projects in alot of different sizes thanks to your help ❤️❤️
THANK YOU ❤❤❤❤❤
BEST MAGIC CIRCLE TUTORIAL EVER
I picked it up instantly thanks to you and it looks great
I’m on 0.25 and it’s still going to fast😭😭😭
Your videos are wonderfully clear and well explained and close to the camera. There are so many videos that are not enlarged enough or the yarn is too fine. And I appreciate the encouragement you add to the learning process!
OMG!!! you are the BEST ever. I've v watched so many other tutorials. Although I would eventually have success it would take many many attempts, take a break, try again.
So very frustrating. Yours is so clear, consise and finally usable.
THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU!
my therapist will hear about this 😭
I tried magic circle then kept acadently doing the 2nd method from another video to make a dice bag XD this is by far the best titoral video and I'm so glad if found it. First time a good 5 hours for 2 rows from having to keep starting again. I did finish it in the end and I'm happy enough to try again 😁
I don't know if you will see this, but I finally got the magic circle. I didn't think I ever would, but watching this video step by step I found out how to do it. Thanks so much for this easy video.😁
Thanks for watching! Which of the 3 techniques is your new go-to?
First one but they are all great
The 2nd one worked much easier for me. I'll have to practice the 1st one.
Are you chaining one, before you start the next round? Is that always the case?
I cried watching this video.
Same
thank you so much!!! it has been years since i tried the magic ring because i just couldn’t get it but the alternative you showed is so useful!!❤️
Hey Beautiful! Self-taught crocheted here. My in-the-round crocheting always came out inconsistent. Decided to look for a tutorial, and found your alternative. Oh. My. Goodness. Should have looked this up a long time ago. What an easy aadjustment! Thank you so much! Now off to find a better way to crochet an oval! Thank you again!!
Just so your know you're awesome. I started literally 2 hours ago and I finally got it after some stupid hands and the non dominant right hand configuration.thank you
Tysm!! I’ve been doing crochet and my mind was like, “AHHH I MESSED UPPP” But I kept on going. I looked for tutorials and this is the one I saw! When I did it, it actually worked! Ty for making this vid!
thank you! I've been struggling so much with this. for me, the hardest part is beginning the first 6 single crochets, I always get it all tangled and confuse myself. but this is the best I've done for sure!
Thank you 😊 This is the way I make a magic circle/ring. It’s the easiest. I’ve watched soo many methods and I get dizzy. This presentation is wonderful. Good information too! 😊
Thanks Sigoni, I watched a lot other videos in mandarin and English version regarding how to make magic ring which involved 5 fingers and it's really drive me mess and failed. Finally I found your this video, thank you very much. You did guided us a simple and effective way to do a magic ring. Thank you very much 💕
Thank you. My favorite is the Magic Circle and I did have to watch your tutorial a couple of times and set it aside for a little while but I got it! Again, thank you
I have been trying to learn how to crochet for weeks and you wont believe how much it helps me! Tysm!
Thank you so much for having a voice over and not the abbreviations on screen. 🥺 I’ve watched so many videos now and this is the first one I finally feel I can understand! I will be revisiting tomorrow when I can actually work 👍🏼
Thank you very much. For sharing. I did not cry I was mad. Finally I got it thanks to you
thank you so much!! this is the first video to make magic rings make sense!!!!!
this is the first time ive ever been able to follow a tutorial for crochet 😭😭 i thought it was just impossible for me but i only had to rewind a bit twice to figure out what yarn over means lol. thank you so much oh my god 😭😭❤️❤️❤️
Yes ! I actually did the magic loop from watching your video ! I am very visual learner but even all the instruction books caused me to "blank out".
Thank you thank you thank you
Omg u explained the magic circle better than any one I've seen ! Omg thank u ! U have just opened up a whole new world to me and got yourself a new subscriber !🧶💗🙏
Watched so many videos trying to figure out how to do this, got it on the first try watching you! Thank you so much
Thank you!!! I have spent the last week watching Magic Circle/Magic Ring Videos and was ready to tear my hair out - your method above just clicked for me! I have been crocheting for over 50 years but never doing anything the "correct" way. It used to drive my Mother crazy to watch me crochet - my end results were fine but I never held my hands "correctly", I never drew the thread with my left hand little finger, I always stop and drag a new section of thread from the skein. My technique is so awful that when I asked her to teach me to knit she laughed and said, "You and two needles? Never, let's just stick to Crochet!" She didn't hurt my feelings, we always laughed about all this until we nearly cried because the lessons were always so painful and funny. I lost her almost 30 years ago and I am now 66 years old. I decided to use the miracle of UA-cam to finally learn some real Crochet Techniques before my hands give out. Let me tell you that Magic Circle was causing me to seriously second guess my plan - and then came you. Thank you so much Sigoni!
Great informative video. I very recently picked up crocheting after many years. I fell in love w/ amagrumi after not liking it at all!!! I guess I’m in the club of frustrated crocheting people. I watched so many videos on that darn magic circle; I knew i would be able to do it. Yea well NOPE. I tried so hard over & over. It was a no go. I did put it aside for a day or 2; picked it back up and I GOT IT!!!! Don’t give up people; YOU CAN DO IT. ❤❤gayle
I got my magic circle on just 2nd try.. Thank You so much.. You are a big help.. subscribed to you now..
lots of l❤️ve from the Philippined ☺️
That was the absolute best explained demonstration of a magic loop! I'm 69 yrs old and I tried doing crochet about 5 yrs ago. I made a couple easy beanies. Some came out like newborn size. Not sure why. I tend to crochet very tight and then have hard time getting hook thru. I gave up on it but I wanted to do it so bad. Turns out I had a large brain tumor and just had surgery. I was hoping that it would all be so much easier for me but doesn't seem to be. I do think that your video made it very clear and you are a great teacher. I am going to keep trying cause I really want to be able to create things. I will follow you. Thanks for teaching!
By demonstrating slowly you make it much easier for people who've never crocheted before like me. Wish there was brochures like this o demos l. Thanks Again 😊 👍💓
Thank you. This was very helpful. I have been struggling with the magic circle for EVER. With more practice and your video I think I can get it. I won’t give up.
I got the magic circle first time round, practiced a bit, all ok. Now I got thinner yarn and am swearing like a sailor.... I remembered seeing your video and came back. I'm a total novice, so this is really appreciated
I got it within a week and just took off creating things thank you so much❤
I have watched numerous videos on how to make this loop. I was not successful in making a loop until I watched your video a few times. Thanks so much!
Yoou made this so simple. I was trying to do the magic circle from books, and wasn't getting it because the books didn't explain which end of the yarn to use. But after watching your video I can now make Magic Circle. Hooray!!! Thank you.😛😛😛
Thank you for this video. It’s the only one that I was actually able to finally make a magic circle! So appreciate it
Thank you for this tutorial! I never comment on videos but I have watched so many trying to figure this out. This is the only one that clicked for me! ❤
I tried 3 other videos… I’m a beginner and haven’t practiced anything, but a square in like 9 years! I got this on the first try by just slowing down the speed of the video. Very well explained! Highly recommend slowing down the speed of the visit video in your settings if you are a beginner. Thanks so much!!
Yes absolutely! I’m so glad you were able to figure it out!
Thank goodness I found your video. This is the first one I have been able to follow along with and was able to actually make my circle! Thank you!
She really teaches extremely well. I have looked and tried many others. No one compares.
I got the first one. The second row I’m not sure about but it’s a good start. Thank you! Finally got it. Now maybe I can learn how to make a granny square!
the second method that you showed was so helpful!! crocheting in the round has always been difficult for me but that method was super easy!! thanks :)
Thank you for patiently repeating how to make the magic circle
I have successfully made one after replaying your video a few times 👍✌️🥰
I've watched a few tutorials on this and this is the first I saw to show how to stitch onto the circle. Turns out it's not that hard now I know how to do it. Thanks!
🎉🎉 OMG I did it,I can't believe how much easy you have made it THANK YOU
Omg!!!! Thank you for being slow to explain. Your video is the only one that made me understand because everyone goes so fast I can’t understand or see what they’re doing!!!!
EXCELLENT TUTORIAL!!!!!!!
This is DEFINITELY the best tutorial video for crocheting in the round!!!!! 💯 💯
Thank you soooo so much.
Thank you so much! I'm so glad you think so ❤️
I've watched a lot of vids on how to do this magic wheel. Yours was the easiest to follow, think I got it!! Thanks. Still struggling with changing colors at end of round.
I have watched SO MANY videos on this and tried and tried to make a magic circle. Then I found your video and was able to make it easily the very first time. Thank you!!!
Yay! I'm so glad I could help!
