Pattern for Crocheted Ball
You’ll need:
- yarn (any yarn will do, in this example I used a cotton/acrylic mix in three different colors)
- crochet hook (size that matches your yarn)
- washable stuffing material
- optional: bell (suitable for stuffies)
Stitches:
Ch = US/UK: chain stitch | Dutch: losse
SC = US: single crochet | UK: double crochet | Dutch: vaste
Half ball (make two):
Crochet in a continuous spiral.
Tip: mark the beginning/end of each round with a small safety pin.
- start: 2 Ch, 6 SC in first stitch (= second stitch from the hook)
- weave in tail
- 2 SC in every stitch (= 12)
- *1 SC, 2 SC in same stitch*, repeat * * (= 18)
- *1 SC, 2 SC in same stitch*, repeat * * (= 27)
- 27 SC
- * 3 SC, 2 SC in same stitch*, repeat * * (= 33)
- * 3 SC, 2 SC in same stitch*, repeat * * (= 41)
- * 3 SC, 2 SC in same stitch*, repeat * * (= 51)
- 51 SC
- 51 SC
- 51 SC
- 51 SC
- * 3 SC, 2 SC in same stitch*, repeat * * (= 63)
- 63 SC
(optional: change color)
- 63 SC
- 63 SC
Now you’ve got half a ball.
Leave a long tail, which you will later use to sew the two halves together.
Finish:
Stuff both halves of the ball and sew them together.
Optional: insert a bell in the center.
Weave in tails.
Have fun!
