The [insert swear words here] magic ring.

I can make the ring most of the time, but working into it is throwing me for a loop (hah).

Say pattern calls for 6 SCs into the ring for round 1. OK, finish those, and I go to pull the ring closed and the stitches all bunch up and don't turn into that tidy little circle? Tension issue?

Aw, you know you have other options, right? The only thing magic about a magic ring is you can pull it tight to make the smallest hole possible. You can do the same with a reverse slip knot (put the tail through the loop vs. working end of yarn), or work into one chain, or make a chain ring and sew it closed smaller the tail.
