Start Ring

The start ring will be used to crochet in rounds. This is necessary for crochet pieces of motives, scarfs, tablecloths, amigurumis, decoration and many other things. You have 2 possibilities to make a start ring.

1. Option

The yarn ring (also known as Magic ring). The reason behind is to start the work not with a straight chain instead you start with a ring. This ring you can pull close without a hole.

2. Option

Start ring with a chain

In this case, you crochet a chain of five to six chain (the number of chains depends on the work you do and may vary). This chain will be closed with a slip stitch to a ring.

We start with the chain:

Yarn around the pointer finger of the left hand,

Start Ring

Push the crochet hook underneath the string and turn.

Now you can crochet single crochet, double crochet etc. into the ring.

As example I show it with single crochet.
