[Nfb-krafters-korner] magic ring help

[Blindhands at aol.com]

This is how I did it in the past...
 
You make a circle with the yarn tail.  You hold the tail and yarn that  you 
made the circle out of now you put the hook into the circle and draw up a  
loop and  this is like wrapping the yarn around the strand of yarn that is  
your tail.From what they say I believe they turned it around and going in 
the  direction of the tail putting single crochets in the circle and covering 
the  tail.  When you get your amount in the circle you find the end and pull 
it  to tighten the circle up .  This way your tail is anchored by the 
number of  single crochets you added to the circle.  This is the way I am 
picturing  it.  I actually like the chain 2 and 6 single crochet in first chain.

I'm missing  something here. I'm going to try it out when I get a
chance because I've  cranked out two really awesome crocheted purses
and I've got orders for 2  more. I was able to weave in ends to cover
the tiny little hole formed by  the beginning pattern.

Maybe this can be a Monday night chat one  night.
