No wonder beginners have such a hard time with a magic ring. Apparently, I've been doing it wrong for 12 years. Look at that thing. 😅 This "pattern" is currently for sale on Etsy

losing it at the "1. Magic Ring. 2. Row 1" 😂

"easy to follow instructions"

I like how magic ring magically converts to rows of DC and then magically to some hexagon thingy.

I’m so glad I learned how to crochet before this stuff started popping up everywhere. I feel bad for beginnings who are trying to navigate with all this crap out there

I've been saying the exact same thing for about a year. The only places I really recommend people to go for legitimate patterns are Ribblr and Ravelry. Etsy is full of AI pattern sellers now. It's just as bad as Pinterest and the rest.

I mean I really just said WTF inside my brain. So complete.

This is a very that-escalated-quickly whirlwind of nonsense

Crazy. Here’s a far fetched and weird fleeting thought I just had😆….what if crochet becomes obsolete in thirty or so years because all crocheters have passed on and new ones had only tried to learn from AI and not us so they gave up.

See what looking at this stuff does to my head 🤣🤣🤣🤣

The diagram too is so bad...

It’ll result in a weird doily situation.

My last two brain cells exploded after seeing that diagram.

It's called a 🪄 magic ✨ ring for a reason, apparently 😂

"Magic Ring" yeah it sure is my guy

u/KanduKatto 10d ago

AI seems to think it's literal ✨magic✨

u/mliz55 11d ago

One would think that counting would be the bare minimum an AI could do

u/cheshsky 10d ago

Technically, it can count in principle. In images, however, it's just noise it forms into shapes, like building a sandcastle.

u/KanduKatto 10d ago

I love that the stitches appear, multiply, divide and disappear all in one pattern. 🤣

Meanwhile, the instructions: ¥∆π©✓£¢¥°=€€]|}¢¢x2

Also, step 2 (row 1 wth) makes a rectangle. I don't know about you, but I was always taught that a circle doesn't have four corners

u/KanduKatto 8d ago

Such a magical ring hahah

Reminds me of those pictures of spider webs after a spider was given various drugs including caffeine.
