FAQs??

-How many squares do I need for a baby blanket?

This can vary, it really can be however big or small you like, but i generally do 4x4 or 5x5.

-How many chains shall I do for a *single/double/etc' blanket?

Again, this can vary. I would suggest that you do your chain and lay it down agains the bed you are wanting it for. It should be the same width. You should then ad a few more to make it a little wider.

-How much yarn do I need?

Unfortunately, I will not be able to answer individuals questions about how much yarn you would used do to multiple factors affecting it. Such as, your tension, the size of hook and the yarn being used.

-What equipment do you use?

-What do you do for a living?

I’m about ready to throw my yarn and crochet hook out the window

Every single video explains in excruciating detail the easiest part and then whips through the rest I’ve had it.

I've been crochet for 3 years. I still have to come back to this video EVERY TIME.

I've been crocheting for over 55 years. Just recently heard about the Magic Circle. Love the look of it and the fact it closes the circle up when needed. However, I have watched numerous videos and was not getting it. Your video was clear, concise, to the point. Thanks for teaching these old fingers a new trick. Now to make some scrubbies.

0:22 Time stamp for the start of magic circle tutorial.
Thank you for your clear and concise explanation of how to crochet a magic circle!

[angeliaguthrie]

I’ve been crocheting for many years. I can read patterns and do all the stitches. This is the one video I ALWAYS come back to. I just don’t do enough Mc for it to stick. Thank you so much! It’s the perfect tutorial

I’ve just started crocheting today and have not gotten the magic circle at all. You were the clearest by far! From a wannabe crochet starter who is very thankful 😊!

[elizabethbooks]

I'm from the U.S. and you were the first person that I understood when it came to crocheting. Since I watch your videos so much I've gotten so used to the U.K. terminology. Now whenever I watch an American doing a crochet tutorial, I can't understand them! Why can't the terminology just be the same so that we won't get confused lol.

I did it! I did it! I’ve really struggled with the magic ring, failing, which I hate, and flouncing off in a huff for a month or two. Your tutorial was recommended by my sister, as the clearest and best. She was right, which I also hate, 🤣. Thank you so much! X

[AshesAshes]

Finally a magic circle tutorial that is clear! Thank you, thank you! I always forget how to do it and so many methods just make my head hurt. Many thanks!
For those who are struggling, don't give up-- go through tutorials until you find one that works for you. My advice for learning is to keep it simple. Slip knot, chain, single crochet until you've got it. All the lumpy knotted messes (that nearly all of us created at first) can be ripped out or cremated, depending upon your mood.
*You can do it!*

Best magic circle instruction I've come across.❤

[mybirthstoneisemerald]

Seeing so Many comments here talking how stressful this thing AT FIRST. I hope y'all don't mind but I'm glad we're all in this together!

[washirayaboriraks]

Wow this is the easiest magic circle i’ve seen by far. Thank you. Other tutorials had me struggling until i saw your video.

[KylaRees]

This is the only one where I've actually succeeded in making a circle. Thank you

[JADE-jwuy]

Just found this i think this is the best tutorial I have found on a magic circle and quickest normally quick ones don't explain anything but this covered EVERYTHING

[fortunatelyno]

I literally cannot explain how grateful I am for this video Bella Coco! I have looked up about 15 videos looking for magic circle tutorials and yours was the only one that helped me! Thank you so much!

[Saxamaphonegirl]

Like all of your tutorials, this is by FAR the clearest tutorial I've seen on how to make a magic circle. Thank you for the effort you put into making such clear and concise tutorials, it really is appreciated. From a beginner crochet wannabe, all the way over in Australia!

[ohmyorwell]

Omg Bella I've been watching tutorials all night. Finally I did the magic effing circle. Now I can spend the next 3 months trying actual stitches lol. Thanks girl!

[Alice-mbxf]

I DID IT AFTER 7 MONTHS! I’ve been trying to do a magic circle since February, and what really helped was being patient and watching of tutorials. First I learned how to make a square and a regular line of stitches, then I did a granny square, and with all those in mind I came back and was able to figure this out! ☺️😁

[vicksvaporub]

“Now just triple stitch into the circle” how do I do that ?👄?
