To create the head of your graduation amigurumi, we'll start with a magic circle. Follow these steps:

3.1. Starting with a Magic Circle

1. Take the brown yarn and make a magic circle.
2. Crochet six single crochets into the magic circle.
3. Pull the yarn tail to close the circle tightly.
4. Slip stitch to the first single crochet to join the round.

3.2. Adding Increases

1. For the second round, crochet six increases by making two single crochets in each stitch. This will give you a total of twelve stitches at the end of the round.
2. Slip stitch to the first single crochet to join the round.
