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.

How to understand crochet patterns?
look at the pattern...... it usually says how much..... i.e.: 5 skeins of yarn As noted above, the pattern generally states how much yarn to use for that pattern. If you are trying to design your own pattern, however, then the process is more complicated. There is no general rule for how much yarn in a pattern, even as to type of pattern, because each is so different. Different scarf patterns, for example, would take different amounts of yarn. Generally speaking, I can probably make a scarf if I have 7 to 10 ounces of yarn. If I am making a hat for a child, I can do it with one 3.5 ounce skein with yarn leftover. For an adult, it depends on the pattern. Sometimes one skein would be enough, sometimes two would be needed. Afghans require more yarn, but amount varies with yarn, hook, and the size of the afghan as well as the pattern. One can take a baby afghan pattern and use chunky yarn to give a larger afghan, but amount of yarn required will be different. If you have a pattern and it gives you the yarn amount in skeins but not ounces, and you want to use a different yarn, then you need to find out how many ounces in that type of yarn, then buy the required ounces in a yarn in the same weight category.

when starting to crochet a pattern do you start in the first chain from the hook?
Most usually you start in the second chain if you are working sc, the third chain if you are doing dc, etc. The pattern usually says where to start.
When a crochet pattern says turn in the middle of the pattern what does that mean?
Hmm. I have never seen this before but I am assuming its pretty much the same as turning work in the middle of your knitting. Say you have thirty stitches on your crochet project. You double crochet 15 and then the pattern says to turn in the middle... You would hypothetically chain 1 or two and turn the work as if you were starting a new row. I hope I was right on this, I am just inferring.
What does it mean in a crochet pattern if you are doing 3 chains at the start of every row then it tells you to do a single chain for the next so many rows?
I would do exactly as it says unless you can see a reason not to. If the project is not coming out as it should, then I would contact the designer and see if it was a typo. It is possible those next rows are single crochet which only needs one chain for turning or there is a reason she wants the other rows to have a shorter turning chain.
Did the queen in Alice in Wonderland say do you play crochet?
No, the Queen in Alice in Wonderland famously says "Off with their heads!" as a recurring threat throughout the story. There is no mention of her asking "do you play crochet."

What does it mean leave remaining stitches unworked?
It means that instead of working a stitch into that stitch you skip it and leave it unworked. For instance if you have 20 stitches and it says crochet in 19 and leave the 20th unworked, you would simply not crochet into the 20th stitch.

What is pastel crochet thread?
This notation refers to the color of the thread, not to a weight or other information about the yarn itself. If you are using a pattern that says "pastel thread" it means that you get to choose the colors rather than use the colors for a specific theme. Pastel is pale, baby colors like lavender (purple), pink (red), or jonquil (yellow).
