Magic circle crochet loop
Single crochet, sc (US) / Double crochet , dc (UK)
Slip stitch (sl st)
MAGIC CIRCLE:
To avoid hole in the middle beg with this technique:
Hold yarn end in the left hand and make a loop around left index finger (from left to right). Hold the loop
with left thumb and index finger. * Insert hook through loop, get the yarn from ball, pull thread through
loop, make 1 YO on hook and pull YO through st on hook = 1 dc *, repeat from *-* until there are 5-6-8 dc
in loop, finish with 1 sl st in first dc. Continue as explained in pattern – AT THE SAME TIME pull yarn end so
that loop is tighten tog and the hole disappears.
CROCHET INFO:
Replace first dc at beg of round with 1 ch. Finish every round with 1 sl st in first ch from beg of round. I.e.
when piece is worked in the round, work alternately from RS and WS and fasten with 1 sl st in first ch on
round.
----------------------------------------------------------
SLIPPER:
Slipper is worked on hook size 10 mm with 1 strand of each colour (= 2 strands Eskimo). Beg working from
the toe. Piece is first worked in the round - read CROCHET INFO above, then worked back and forth.

Make a MAGIC CIRCLE - see explanation above.
ROUND 1 (WS): Turn piece and inc 4 dc evenly = 9-10-12 dc.
ROUND 2 (RS): Turn piece and work 1 dc in every dc.
ROUND 3 (WS): Turn piece and inc 4 dc evenly = 13-14-16 dc.
Work 8-8-10 rounds with 1 dc in every dc (last round is worked from WS).

ROW 1: Work over the first 8-9-11 dc.
ROW 2: Turn piece and work over the first 7-8-10 dc.
ROW 3: Turn piece and work over the first 6-7-9 dc.
