    Does it say 6 SC in a MR? If so that means you make 6 single crochets in the magic circle. Or 4 if it says 4. So you would start the magic circle just like this and then make the number of stitches they tell you to in it.

    If you mean making single crochets in the magic circle, I would suggest looking at any of my plushie tutorials (except the narwhal one) and it'll show you the next step after the magic circle! But basically you just insert your hook into the circle (going over both strings of yarn) and make a single crochet like you would in a chain but you do this as many times as the pattern calls for and then pull on the yarn tail to close it up.
