The magic ring used when crocheting in rounds, it good for round doily, basket, or amigurumi.
The advantage of using magic ring is that there is no hole in center.
This is how I crochet magic ring.
I use method that wrap yarn around finger twice, it’s complicated, but when it’s done, never loosen.
Step1
Begin by wrapping the yarn twice around your fingers, like shown.
Step2
Put your crochet hook through the center of 2loops, yarn over, pull yarn through the center of 2loops, then yarn over again and pull yarn through the loop on hook.

Then, pull the loops that shrinked until close the center.
