Lost track of where you are, or want to redo your stitches? Do your best to preserve the original magic loop that came with your kit! Since the magic loop is one of the trickiest techniques in crochet, you'll thank yourself later for keeping it intact. Watch these videos to learn how to:

• Undo stitches to get back to the magic loop
• Add stitches to the magic loop, in case you got a little too gung-ho about undoing stitches. This video shows you how to count the stitches in your magic loop, and add more if you need to.
• Crochet a magic loop. If you couldn't resist and undid the whole thing, start over by crocheting your own magic loop.
