Magic Row Ring Tutorial
- Leave a 6 to 8 inch yarn tail and chain the number of stitches in Round 1 of your project.
- Chain the turning chain needed for the stitch you are using (sc=1, hdc=2, dc=3, tr=4).
- Work the first round of stitches across the row.
- Place a stitch marker in the working loop of yarn and remove your hook.
- Weave your yarn tail back and forth through the remaining loops of your foundation chain across the entire row.
- Pull the yarn tail to tighten and cinch the row into a round.
- On the wrong side of your work(ie turn your project over), weave your yarn end in securely to reinforce the round.
- Weave in your end.
- Follow the rest of the pattern as written.
