Rounds 1-7
Brace yourself. It's time. Time to learn the magic loop. Using brown yarn, watch this tutorial:
Magic loop giving you trouble? Try this easier chain method instead. It'll probably leave you with a hole in the middle, but that's OK – you gotta do what you gotta do to make a circle.

Round 1: | 6 sc in magic loop | (6) |
Round 2: | inc x 6 | (12) |
Round 3: | [sc, inc] x 6 | (18) |
Round 4: | [5 sc, inc] x 3 | (21) |
Rounds 5-7: | 21 sc | (21) |
Tip
If you're having trouble seeing the stitches in this magic loop, use the 3 stitch markers that came in your kit and mark the stitches as you make them.
