Small Magic circle

rolter

I have difficulty making magic circle with few stitches like 4 sc in the magic circle and 4 sc in the following rounds.  Any advice to make it easier?

Keep your circle quite large until you have completed the last stitch, then pull it closed & slip stitch to join. That way you can almost crochet in a row which I find a bit easier :)

It is a bit fiddly for the first couple of rows :/

That is hard moment, those couple rows.
I use other end of my hook to pusch mgr stitches down. It is hard to explain.

I make sure to use markers so you know which one is the first stitch, which will make it easier to know where to start the next round.

I tend to do a ch2 for little loops, easier than a migic circle that leaves a hole...

i prefer the "ch 2" method also.. i find it saves time

well, I use Embellish-Knit tool or rope maker it have four needles and its very easy to give me the required rope or I-cord then I can manage the length required and attach it to my doll or accessory or whatever project I am doing it also have a lot of projects ideas
you can Google "Embellish Knit" and you will find a lot of images and Videos for the tool :)
I hope this solved your problem , good luck and enjoy

it really isnt easy. when i have to sc 4 in the round, i usually try to go pull the yarn through via the side.. its hard to explain..

i hate small rounds.. really cant help it tho
