When you start to crochet a pattern and it says sc6 into a circle how do you do it?
When a crochet pattern calls for sc6 into a circle, what the instructions are stating are to make a magic circle, and then single crochet 6 stitches into the magic circle.Nice, hunh? Now, what in the world is a 'magic circle' (or magic loop. or magic ring)??? Well what you do is loop your yarn/thread around your fingers twice, then single crochet the 6 stitches into the loops, then you will pull one of the ends of the loop/circle/ring, to close the loop up. Viola` you have begun your pattern using 6sc, and minimizing the hole in the center of the pattern.I would suggest that you check out youtube.com to find video how-to's for the magic circle, magic ring, magic loop. I've attached a number of links to this question, which will send you to youtube to check out the videos.
In crochet what is the magic loop?
A crochet magic circle is a way to begin crocheting in the round without using slip stitches. You loop the yarn, and then crochet into the loop space. When you have completed your first row of stitches into the loop, you pull on the tail, and draw the loop closed.This is really helpful for amagarumi, because you have a much, much smaller "hole" in the middle, than what you would have if you slip stitched a foundation chain.Attached are videos explaining how to use a magic circle.

How do you hdc?
Hdc is the abreviation for half double crochet. When you double crochet you wrap wool around the hook before you push the hook through the stitch to pull up a loop. After you pull up the loop you have three loops on your hook. Usually you will then pull a loop through two of the loops and pull a second loop through the remaining two loops. With the half double crochet you will pull one loop through all three loops.

How do you crochet a ridge with double crochet going into single crochets?
It sounds like you want to work blo, or "back loop only". This will produce a ridge along the row when viewed from the right side of the work. It is produced by working the double crochet stitches into the back loop only, of the single crochet stitches in the row below. Its very nice looking and if you work a swatch in the back loop only, and turn it on its side, you will see that it looks and stretches a bit like ribbing.
