[NFB-Krafters-Korner] Magic ring

Thanks Tammy. That sounds much easier than the clunky method I've been
using.  I knew there was a better way.  Saving this to my patterns folder.

Tracy,
See if this helps.

***Magic Ring***
MAGIC CIRCLE:
When piece is worked in the round, start with this technique to avoid hole
in the middle. Hold the yarn end with left hand and make a loop around left
index finger (from left to right). Hold loop with left thumb and index
finger. *stick hook through loop, pick up the yarn from the skein, pull yarn
back through loop, make a yo around hook and pull yo through st on hook = 1
sc

Hope this helps!
Merry Christmas!

My method for making a magic ring in crochet is to reverse what I do to make
a slip knot, so that the string to pull is the short tail.  But it involves
me putting my whole ball of yarn through a loop, so it's not easy.  I tried
to find a description online, but couldn't find one that made sense to me.
Can anyone describe how it's supposed to be done?

Tracy
