How to crochet a magic loop with 6 single crochet stitches in it

The magic loop, also known as a magic ring, adjustable ring, or magic circle, is a common way to start amigurumi - crochet stuffed toys - because it creates a circle of stitches with no hole in the middle. You can use a magic loop to start any piece that'll be crocheted in the round.
In this tutorial, you'll learn how to crochet a magic loop with minimal moving of your hands.

I wish there was a version of this that cuts some of the info out, just for when we're watching it for the 10th time lol

[@ABCDEF-gy1pz]

I feel this way about ALL of their videos. She goes on and on.

[@StephiesSmile]

🤣Too funny! This must be time 11 for me 😵‍💫

[@hanlore13]

Same, i had to put mine at 1.75x speed to make it bearable 🤣

FINALLY A TUTORIAL I CAN UNDERSTAND It took me weeks to find a good tutorial, thank you! very well explained

[@jamieloonam1]

I’ve watched at least 3 other videos on magic circles and this is the first time it’s made sense! Thank you!! I’m almost done with my second Wooble :-)

[@ukulelegirl2016]

I am doing a woobles kit and I could not for the life of me figure out the crochet into a center ring. So I said screw it and tried the magic loop and I got it first try! I’ve tried learning to crochet before to no avail but this video made it so easy to understand!

[@dewdanoob3YT]

Same with me! I'm doing Pierre the penguin.

[@AilanDrake]

I went through 6 other tutorials- this is best one 🥲

[@TheWoobles]

Thanks for saying that!

[@kate7557]

this is the most convoluted wordy explanation for this technique I have seen

[@Ilnameitlaterlol]

Thank you so much !! I watched a dozen other videos at all different slow speeds trying to get it, and this is the only one that made it click for me! I didn't even need to slow it down to keep up, you paced it perfectly. Your description of yarn/finger placement, how you hold or adjust your grip, where the yarn should be/hoe it should look on the hook -- all these details that someone oriented like myself needed to really grasp it. I'm so, so appreciative! Thank you!

[@RonnieSkittles]

I got this after a few tries. Thank you for the amazing content!

[@candiceduong25]

The only tutorial on the internet that I succeeded

[@scarlettclementine5631]

THANK YOU. LITERALLY THANK YOU SO MUCH 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🥹🥹🥹 I’ve been struggling for so long and finally a magic circle!

[@scrappymum1]

Finally after dozens of attempts at various methods, this one worked for me!

[@jasminestar42]

Great tutorial. I got it the first try. ❤ then forgot then was able to do it after a couple more tries.

[@janetgibbons844]

the best example of the elusive Magic Ring❤

[@FlorailePetals]

THANK YOU! I've watched multiple videos where they use other fancy terms that I don't know, making me feel dumb for not being able to do anything! This really broke it down so I could do it, once again thank you! I was able to do it first try with this!😁

[@user-mk4re8db7b]

I bought a wooble kit and messed up the circle. I want to cry right now. Im trying so hard to get this but I just CANT. I just want an axolotle.

[@user-mk4re8db7b]

ITS 2 30 AM AND I DID IT IM SO HAPPY

[@fhskwbdvjdk]

thank you!! i got it after only a couple tries, thanks to your instructions

[@sarahpappas8840]

Omg this was amazing!!! I got it after my 2nd try!!!!!! You are such an amazing teacher thank you!!!!!

[@H34RT5F0RMYC4T]

Tysm! This tutorial really helped me

[@ally9240]

Thank you so much I have been spending along time trying to get the hang of this and is great to have clear instructions

[@jenniferlim4899]

omg i finally did it this is the best tutorial thank you!!

[@stanleythechattyparrot2464]

I have watched this for hours now and I still don’t know how I’m creating stitches. The yarn you are using is not the same as what you have in your kits. So frustrated!!!!!

[@hibibtybop]

helps a lots

[@inespereira850]

Finally a proper explanation :D Thank you for making this video

[@wintersoul510]

This has been driving me crazy. Thank you so much for this video

[@maryiakay3628]

got it on the 1st try! really great tutorial :)

[@savannavaughn4310]

Love this. although rewatch ? I found it simple. But I catch on if a can watch

[@kenzielacosta8244]

I understood this from watching the first time around. I'm self taught and have been crocheting for maybe 23 years or so. I love your channel and I love your Woobles. I dont mean thus in a bad way, so please don't get mad. This is just from experience. I would have split this video up. 1: Tension and holding your work. 2: magic loop. I know when I'm frustrated and I can't figure something out and a video kind of has alot that I have to listen to and focus on n when I'm already frustrated... I'll skip the video. I'm sure there's alot of people like that especially with the way of the world. Everything is do fast paced. I end up coming back and looking at written notes too. I've also been brainstorming because I have thought about making a KZbin channel but soooi many people have a crochet channel I'm not sure if nine would be worth it. Ok. Done rambling. Much love and ✌☮

[@cowboyhatcat]

it just makes a giant knot for me i’ve tried like fifty times

[@skygames6306]

i can get up to the first stitch, when i try to do the second one it gets all messed up and just looks like a giant knot

[@skygames6306]

idk what im doing wrong because im doing the exact same thing i did for the first stitch

[@DeadSoul027]

@@skygames6306 I have the same issue! :(

[@lisagraziano6400]

I did this one on Kiki my first Wooble but now that I saw the Magic Ring, I think it looks easier. For now I will stick with Woobles loop and practice lol😂

[@merissaj4518]

Thank you for this!

[@Brianna-br3hc]

Is the first one a slip knot… cause it looks like a slip knot and there is a much easier way to start a slip knot

[@supernova622]

Easier is relative. I lost count of how many tutorials I watched as a literal day 1 beginner and this is the only video that actually helped me understand what the hell I'm doing.

[@vagarnaldcoochischmidt1910]

Thank you for this! I got my pre started piece but it was very unevenly done and too tight in spots

[@patientlycrafts]

Ooohh, I see what I did wrong, I was holding the ends of the string backwards 😂 I kept making a knot that wouldn't tighten, going to practice a few times but Great Tutorial ❤

[@ajwest5569]

so easy!! thank you :D

[@dewdanoob3YT]

Thank you so much for this tutorial!

[@DebGeeDee]

I really like your initial set up explanation but as an experienced crocheter I didn’t need all the extra stuff or just a quicker version of it. If you redid this with thinner yarn aimed at more experienced yarners you’d crack heaps of views I think. You probably need a beginner plus advanced version. I don’t thick thicker yarn helps with tutorials because it’s not usually a ‘real life’ situation. Great job with your loop tech though- best I’ve seen yet ❤.

[@supernova622]

3:50 "the size that you would normally do when you're crocheting" But this is my first time 😭😭

[@HamsterOnStrike]

For the tiger snout, instead of a stitch from 6 to 1, we're doing the invisible fasten off? I'm confused on this and it's got me stuck

[@calico567]

Why the orange hook? That's 6.0mm in my collection. The kits come w/ 4.0mm. Is it a better size to make magic circle?

[@calico567]

I don't know if it will help those that struggle: try slowing down video. It has helped me because I do not learn things quickly. Make sure to mute video unless you enjoy very slow talking.

[@melaniemartinez6805]

Thank you so much

[@jonijensen1701]

I am struggling with the second round - where to slide my hook into for that first stitch. This is my first time doing a wobble and first time attempting to crochet. Thanks!

[@Zorkololos]

very helpfull thx💯⭐

[@pygmiegoatsheepbeat]

I did have to slow this down, so she sounds REALLY drunk but it works. XD

[@Clodsire940]

does it matter how long the yarn tail is?

[@katielaboe981]

Ong that made a lot of sense

[@elijjah]

thanks dude

[@juliaurgello9977]

yes very informative

[@elijjah]

ikr

[@susanahwideman8975]

Why the heck does one crochet stitch have two loops!? So confusing.

[@lt5466]

i made a magic loop but its so hard to start a single crochet stitch for a new round on the first stitch of the magic loop. what am i doing wrong. did i make the magic loop stitches too tight?

[@TheWoobles]

It could be that you made the stitches too tight, or maybe you're trying to crochet into the knot instead of the single crochet stitch! In case it's useful, we have a Facebook group for beginners, where you can post a photo of your magic loop and get some help: facebook.com/groups/beginnercrocheters

[@The_Honey_Diaries]

As a leftie, this is definitely kind of confusing, since i cant see exactly how to do it in the proper hand, but other than that this is a great tutorial!

[@supernova622]

I know it's probably too late now but they have a playlist of lefty tutorials

[@The_Honey_Diaries]

@@supernova622 thank you! I found it!

[@BarryMcCawkiner]

I was wondering about this myself. This is a great tutorial, but damn, I can see why it's difficult to learn.

[@Lion_Playz]

Hi, I’m braaaaand new to crochet and I accidentally messed up the prestarted magic loop on my Felix the fox and need to remake it lol I was wondering how many stitches are in it so I know how many to make. Thank you! I love Woobles edit: this has nothing to do with their instructions this was my fault

[@charmeccho]

a video i can understand! i watched over a dozen similar ones and struggled with the speed of the teaching or their hand placement (people cover up what they're doing ┗( T﹏T )┛) thank you for making this!!

[@user-cn8ce5nl8x]

What kind of yarn are you using?

[@VisorDaddy]

I'm not sure why I'm getting this video for my tiger, it's applicable but also very confusing. Maybe consider making a specific tiger video?

[@GlitterGum]

sigh. when i attempt 8:10. pulling the yarn tail does nothing; the yarn tail will not budge.

[@HilaryElizabeth9]

I really appreciate your efforts, but you just gotta get with it. You do alot of, "remember..." and repeating six ways till Sunday I just kind of give ip cuz this takes so long to get thru it and my hand cramps up waiting for you to just SHOW US.

[@TrevorHirsch-it2ty]

How did I end up with 3 V’s? Am I looking at this wrong?? Lol

[@chevy6561]

Can do robe tell me what size hook you use I ordered the kit without one because I gave hooks Why this isn’t written someplace is beyond me😡😡😡😡

[@ashleyfleury8318]

That increase stitch was sooooo confusing

[@sund-dickfamily9777]

This was so helpful I'm making the bee and I'm working on the wings this was so helpful I got it first try

[@VigilanteSwiftie13]

I do everything she does but then during the process I finally realize it looks nothing like hers 😭

[@A.Supercharged.R34]

I need help I only have a pin needle unlike the fat monster hook that you have

[@scottp952]

it kept coming undone

[@Jocesuh]

4:30

[@scottp952]

I couldn't figure it out lol

[@Blitzo42]

Yap yap yap yap yap this is you

[@kimchi98541]

umm you went way too fast at the end

[@phoebegemini]

When you do all the steps and you still fail 10 times

[@adriananisall]

Yes this is a waste of money I did the entire tutorial and my piece is a tortilla at the end flat she never explains about the reduction stitches they go half of the braid on the top is so frustrated I sell all my kits done with this.

[@ZooeyHeHeHe]

erm what the sigma mine looks nothing like you. you take four hours to explain how to go into crocheting position like, ugh. how am i supposed to replay this to understand more when it take 12 years to finally get to the part i don’t understand. like we would be at this video if we didn’t know how to get into crocheting position. also, why is my cornelius so fat. i’m done with the wobbles. 1 star. 😠

[@littl3evee]

It might be fat because your stitches may be too big. Stitch size control comes with practice, so don't feel discouraged! Wish you luck on your crocheting journey! 😊

[@camreynolds]

I reallllly didn't like this tutorial. I have adhd and she took way too long to explain it. My loop kept falling apart while waiting for the next step and she just took so long to explain things.

I can’t handle the vocal fry.
