BellaOnline Forums Hobbies and Crafts Crochet Mobius scarf help?

Instructions say "Chain your needed amount before you join, twist the free end one complete turn, then join." The free end is the first chain I make? What I can't understand how do I make a complete turn? Could you draw a picture of this.
Instructions in Crochet magazines say to crochet a rectangle...then join.

Crochet your scarf to be the length that you wish.

Take the end where you have ended up, give it a twist and join it to your starting edge. This will put a full twist in the body of the scarf.

Here is a detailed explanation of a Mobius strip:

Play with a piece of paper to get the idea before you go finish the scarf if you don't understand it.

Hi Marie, I just got back today, I was running around Las Vegas with my family for the Thanksgiving Holidays. OK what I mean is say you need 25 ch, you would chain 25, then BEFORE you join the chain to make a circle you would give it a twist. Does that make any sense ? If it doesn't just let me know. <img src="/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

ThanksEva. Your explanation does make sense. I know how busy the holidays are for everyone but actually I am not in a hurry to make the Mobius scarf. I like your way better (without the seam) and not the method Crochet magazine published.

I got this idea because of several past mistakes......when I was younger and it would say BE CAREFUL NOT TO TWIST, and I thought I WAS CAREFUL, hehehehehe. So I figured give it the twist at the very begining when you join for no seam.
