Free Pokeball Crochet Amigurumi Pattern - Pokéball Crochet Tutorial

Many people are having a great time with Pokémon GO, so here's something to take along on your travels! Enjoy! 🐾 😘

You will need:

• One small skein of redyarn
• One small skein of white yarn
• Some leftover black yarn
• Polyester stuffing
• Your favourite crochet hook
• Your favourite sewing needle

For the ball in the picture I personally used:

• 2.75 mm (size B) hook
• 8 ply/DK weight yarn

Abbreviations:

sc = stitch
inc = increase
dec = decrease
hdc = half double crochet stitch
dc = double crochet stitch
sl = slip stitch
blo = back loop only
flo = front loop only
fo = finish off
( ... ) = repeat whatever is in between the brackets
[ .. ] = total amount of stitches in that round

Tips:
+ Stuff really firmly!
+ Stitch very tightly, so no holes show when stuffing. You can do this by using a smaller hook than your yarn label recommends, and by pulling your thread a little after every stitch.
