🔥 Frequently Asked Questions:
Do you have a left handed version of this video? If you are left handed, you can convert ANY video on RUclips yourself! Simply go to www.mirrorthevideo.com/ and follow the instructions to mirror flip any video to convert to left handed!
How much yarn will I need? This is a very tricky question to answer as there are so many variables! How much yarn you need will depend on which yarn you choose, the thickness of that yarn, your tension and how large you want your finished project to be. I suggest making a small sample first so you can gauge how much yarn you'll need. If making a crochet square, you can weigh your finished square to work out how much yarn it used!
How many squares do I need for a blanket? That all depends on the size of the square you are making and how big you want your finished blanket to be! I always advise making one square first then measuring the size of it. From there you can work out how many squares you will need to get the blanket size you want 😀
Do you have the written pattern? Yes! I have written patterns to accompany my video tutorials on my website here: www.hookedbyrobin.com The written pattern is generally released a week or so after the video tutorial to ensure there are no errors in the video itself and to make amendments in the written version if any are found. All the written patterns are FREE to access on my website
How can I print the pattern from your website? Do you have downloadable PDF's? Not at this time no. This may change in the future but for now, I only provide the written pattern directly on my website.
Can you remake this video so it is slower? If the video speed is too fast, you can slow it down! 😀 See this video on exactly how: • How to Adjust the Spee...
Why do you use American stitch terminology? I learnt using USA stitch terms, long before I even knew there was a difference between UK & US terminology! American terms are my "first language" so to speak. If you need a conversion chart, I have one here! www.hookedbyrobin.com/crochet...

AMIGURUMI STAR TUTORIAL: ruclips.net/video/oQLGPt60Hq8/видео.html
ok let's check it out
Thank you so much for making this video I just started crocheting a thew days ago and I was having trouble with learning how to do the magic circle I’m definitely subscribing
I can't click on the link😢
I was like: Wait! No! Show us how to make the little star!😢
Prayer answered!🙏🏻😍
I found it! ruclips.net/video/oQLGPt60Hq8/видео.htmlsi=sg9-R5m-Mi45WCam
Omg yes! Magic rings confuse me so much, I feel like a need a video tutorial every time I want to do one. Definitely will use this!
So glad it's helped! 😀
I feel the same way. Its worse when you are left handed. 😳🤯
I was confused at first but I just wrap it around 3 fingers and then pull it through the loop as if I'm making a slip knot. Before I tighten it I chain 1.
@@PheobeThekitty that's pretty smart. I used cloths pins for a bit and then my pointer finger and thumb.
I learned how to do them but they just dont look even or nice when i try
I'm new at crocheting and therefore new at the frustration on the magic ring... The brilliance of this alternative method is amazingly wonderful! THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH!!!!
I’m so glad it helps Barbara! 😃🧶
Same lol
Girl you saved me. When I was watching the other tutorials I was ready to throw my hook to the wall
We’ve all been there!😅🫣 But I am so glad this helps.
Hahaha same
Ive been crocheting for a little over a year and this is what i needed no other magic ring techniques worked bot this really takes the cake for best one. Ive been through soooooo many tutorials that are around five minutes long but this fifty seven second video is the best 5 stars ✨✨✨✨✨
I’m so glad it has helped! 😃🧶
I love the magic ring, because it’s easy to do and super nice to have a neat and tidy look once your project is done, but I’ve found that it wastes a lot of yarn for shedders like velvet yarn because of how much extra tail I have to leave for it to close without breaking the yarn. Thank you so much for this!
Yea definitely!🧶I am glad it helps.x
I think you just saved both my crochet hook and yarn from flying across the room 😂
Thanks, this helps so much.
😂 We’ve all been there, you’ve got this Sabine!😃
THANK YOU SO MUCH!! I WENT THROUGH SO MUCH STRESS TRYING TO MAKE ONE BECAUSE IT DIDNT MAKE ANY SENSE THANK YOU
Awwh no!🤗 I am glad this helps.x
This is such a game changer for crocheting!!! Making magic loops has always been so difficult! So helpful!
I’m pleased it helps, yay!😃
This is what I do instead of the magic ring and I love it!
I literally found like a method for magic circle yet my magic circles werent perfect... i will totally use this video! Thank you!!
Thank you!!! I started a couple days back and I couldn't find a good instruction for this. I just stumbled on this
You’re welcome, I’m glad it helps.😃🧶
I was literally on the verge of crying because of the magic circle, tysm!!!!
You’re so welcome, I’m glad it has helped. So many people find the magic ring tricky!🧶
I love crochet tips, they help me improve a lot :)
I'm so glad! x
I find the magic circle so much better than this way, it doesn't leave a center ring. This way I use for making roses only now. The star is adorable!!!!
I personally LOVE the magic ring and use it for pretty much everything but I know lots of people really struggle with it and especially when using chenille type yarns that have no strength and just snap when you try to pull the ring closed #TeamMagicRing 😆
I agree👌🏻❤
Ahh i still cant, i tried like 1 hour, still cant figure it out 😭
oh my god i cant wait to try this!!!! the magic circle doesnt make sense to me, no matter how many videos i watch. this clicked instantly! i just started crocheting less than a week ago, im so excited!
Yay! So many people find the magic circle tricky, so you aren't alone.🤗 I hope you are enjoying crochet so far.😃
This just helped me so much you don’t even know- 🤯🤩❤️
I just now saw this video, rushed over to my crochet basket, and followed your directions. It worked! So easy! This comes after searching and viewing several different versions, explanations, and faulty demonstrations of the magic circle, and I was ready to give up.
THANK YOU FOR SHARING THIS! You made my day!
Just did this! Works AMAZING, everytime I tried to make the magic ring it just fell apart when I tried to pull it tight, that works awesome! Thank you :D
You’re very welcome!😃🧶
It’s an easier way to make a magic loop for beginners (you’re stitching into the first stitch instead of the loop) but it comes out like a magic ring (the chain method of this; you can’t really cinch it closed, but in a lot of projects that doesn’t even matter - like you said, you can always sew it shut if it bothers you). A lot of people use the terms interchangeably, but they’re not the same; In one you begin by stitching all your stiches into a single loop and with the other you start with a chain.
Nice way of combining two techniques! It’s the **magic hoop**!
Jeez I was blaming myself for my frustration with magic ring. Now I see I'm not alone! I mean, finding the center in a little ball of stitches? 😮
Definitely don’t blame yourself, a lot of people find it tricky!🤗
I have been crocheting for several years but I still have to watch how to make the magic ring, and I never feel like it is working like it should. Thank you, much!!!
You are so welcome Karen!😃
Perfect!! Thank you! I have spent at least the last hour trying the magic ring, then came across this. 🙂
You’re so welcome!😃
I don’t understand why people hate the magic ring so much. I understand that some people find it difficult and so did I but once I got the hang of it it was so easy ! This just looks harder in my opinion, but great alternative!!
It's not it's soooooo easy
God bless you two, that means never give up there is light at the end of the tunnel after all.
What a great tip and one I will be trying as I find the magic loop confusing. As they say though "practise makes perfect" lol. Love the text bubbles as well 👍👏😁
This is GAME. CHANGING. for me thank you!
Woohoo!🙌🥳
Perfect! I used to crochet decades ago. I remember hating the magic ring even then. Thank you for this alternative.
You’re welcome!🧶
thank you for this tip! it will help me for sure :D
Happy to help!
Omg thank you so much. I hate the magic 🪄 💍!!!! You are so smart!!!!!!!
I love your channel so much!! You're the only one I can watch where I can understand exactly how to crochet! Keep posting more because I'll keep watching.❤
🥰
Thankyou! Going to try this way. Been trying to do the magic ring all day and can’t do the last step of it for the life of me. Will try this and hopefully works better!
Let me know how you find it Lyndsey, hope it helps.😃🧶
OMG thank you so much!! I had been trying for like, 30 minuets to get a ring to start with something i wanted to try, but i kept on failing it aaa, thank you for this, i got it first try!
You’re welcome, I’m glad it helped.😃🧶
This is one of the first crochet beginner videos I've seen that actually makes sense to me 🥹🥹
I am glad it helps Melissa!🧶
Omg yesss!! I struggle alot with magic rings will definitely try this next time thank youuu!!!💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
You are very welcome!! 😀💕
Im new at crocheting
And i've been struggling to do the magic ring
Im so glad i saw this video 😭
You earned yourself a new subscriber
The magic ring was the first thing I ever learned how to do! I feel confused whenever others struggle to do it, but for my most recent project, I used it, and it worked wonders! Good thing people like you are spreading the word! Thank you!
You’re very welcome!🧶
Great tip...thanks !
Glad it was helpful!
THANK YOU!! I hate the magic ring.
You are very welcome! X
ive barely even tried this and know itll be far easier than the magic ring! ive already essentially memorized this method and it seems far easier than the magic ring. THANK YOU FOR THIS
You’re very welcome!😃
this NEEEDDSSS to be more known like the magic ring/circle always confused me especially when i use different yarns and search those up and see different tutorials love this❤
I’m so glad it helped!😃
Thanks, I just can’t get the magic ring for some reason
You know, I never had a problem with the magic ring, but... I like this so much better! Thank you!
LOL! No probs! 😀
@@HookedbyRobinhow do we add onto it?
NO WAY
It actually works! You are a lifesaver. Thanks a lot!
You’re so welcome!😃
I find the magic ring really finicky to work with so thank you for this!
I’m pleased it helps!😃
I’m so left handed. I use this alternative all the time. Thanks for tip.
😀
I'm left handed too and struggle with magic rings. This is definitely an easier option
This was in the instructions of something I was making & didn't know what it was so I ended up doing this on my own... LOL, glad to know I wasn't completely wrong using this method & it's actually a real alternative!
I used to hate magic rings when I first started last year, but now I'm used to doing them when I make amigurumis! Thanks for this tutorial!!
You’re very welcome!😃
You. Are. A. Life. Saver!! ❤
I’m glad it helps Kate!😃
Are we still able to make it larger? Like keep adding onto it? Btw this is very helpful I’m new to this stuff and the magic ring circle thing looks pretty complicated! Imma try my hand at a magic ring and try this!
It's really not that complicated people just make it more complicated than it is on RUclips i hate the whole finger thing lol
Are we still able to use this one on the amigumuri bee?
You can use it for ANY pattern 😀 x
Omg I have been looking for this. I HATE magic rings and it is why I hate doing hats and amiguri. Now I can actually try them again.❤
I’m glad it helps Eve!😃🧶
I personally find magic ring to be easy to make as a beginner. I wish you all luck with your crochet projects, and I hope this method will be easy to do!
I tried and I always have a piece of yarn sticking up. Not sure why!
Which piece sticks up? The tail or the yarn attached to the ball?
👍🐐🐐🐐👍😎
🌞
OMG You’re a genius!!! 💖💖💖💖
🥰🧶
OMG!!!

You’re very welcome!😃🧶
Thank you. Just thank u. Words cannot describe my gratitude for this video.
You’re so welcome, I am glad it helps.😃🤗
When i started crochet, i used this method first but it was extremely hard for me then i tried magic circle and it worked like a charm...And now i always use magic circle
Absolutely do whatever works best for you!😃
The way you pull the chain off the hook may have just changed my life... I've been having tension issues, this is the first time I've seen that technique! There's so many variations in crochet it's awesome! I tried Tunisian crochet and found that a lot easier, but your style might help me get back on track, thank you! ❤
You’re very welcome, I’m glad it helps and you’ve got this! It just practice and time.😃🧶
Thank you so much!!!!
I was having trouble holding all of the loose stings in the magic circle while also keeping tension and preventing turning. This makes it so much easier to hold!!!!
You’re welcome Samantha!🧶
OMG!!! YOU HAVE SAVED MY LIFE AND WHAT I HAVE LEFT OF MY MIND! LOL THAT IS SOOOO MUCH EASIER AND LESS FINGER CRAMPS. THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU
Phewww! I am glad I saved you Margie - it is so much easier!😃🧶

Thank you.

- Your new subscriber and magic circle maker
Hi Jess, thank you so much for subscribing!😃 Lovely to have you here and I’m so glad the video helped.🧶
This worked better than I imagined! Thank you! My stiches look uniform and nice this way!
You’re so welcome Marianna, I’m pleased it helped!😃
i can’t belive people didn’t know this sooner. i have never done magic circles the way it was instructed, i have always done it this way, and it has always been such an easy thing to do
🥰🧶
THANK YOU,I couldn’t figure it out but now I can do it
You’re so welcome Annie!🧶
I love this new way!
🥳🧶
thank you so much!! Literally starting my first amiguri… I was on the second row, but it didn’t look right, so I decided to start over and came across your video! How serendipitous!
Perfect timing Alexa!😃
Ma’am you are a true gift thank you so much the rein of the cruel magic circle has ended 😂
😂🥳
Thanks! This helped me so much.
I am glad it helped!😀🥳
OMFGGGG UR A GENIUS
Omg!!! Bloody brilliant! Thank you very much! Seriously there is nothing magic about that ring.
There’s an easier way!
You make your slip knot, then chain two. From there you work all of your stitches into that first chain. To close it, you just pull the tail away from you and the knot towards you.
Hope this helps! ❤
THANK YOU!!! I've been struggling so badly with magic rings they're so difficult to figure out but this just solved half my problems!! Thank you so much!!!!
You’re very welcome, I’m glad it helps.😃

Whoa. Back when i was starting out, i couldn't figure ot the magic ring so i did THIS EXACT THING. I am so glad i did it right all those years ago :) Thanks for sharing this!
Woohoo!🥳
I’m new to crochet, and have tried the magic ring so many times, and have struggled badly to make it work even with video help, so thank you so much! 😃❤
So many people find it tricky, you’re definitely not alone.🤗 I am glad this video helps.
Thank you so much
You’re welcome Keith!🧶🤗
two words THANK YOU.
You’re welcome, I’m glad it helps.😃
You're my new favorite person 😆 So far I've only made dishclothes. Ive wanted to try those kinds of things, but could not figure out the magic ring!
😅🥳
I don't even dislike the magic ring; it's only the initial circle that slips me up and I've only done four so far. But this is so neat and tidy that I think I might do it anyway!
Definitely give it a go and see!😃
Thank you! I’m new to crocheting and the magic ring baffles me.
It does for a lot of people Stephanie, you’re definitely not alone.🤗🧶
THXS SO MUCH FOR THIS TIP
I hope it helps Kahlan!😃🧶
