Ch 1 (does not count as a st), sc 6 into mc, place st marker in 6th st and continue to work in the round (6 sc).
Helpful hint: move the stitch marker (or use a running marker) and place in the last stitch of each round; this will help keep your stitch count correct and help with round counting. Because we are working quite tightly in the round, I weave my starting tail in whilst working round 2.
