Excellent video! I am a beginner and needed to practice with this size 6 bulky yarn for an upcoming project. Your tutorial was clear and helpful. I made a ball and it is round and it rolls. I call that a success!
This tutorial was very jelpful to me, since i have the same yarn and that makes me feel like it is easier tp follow along and also because your video making skill are really good and so are you crochet skills
This is the most helpful video yet! This video helped me finish a SUPER important project that I only had 1 day to finish. (I’m a slow learner). Thank you so much! This really helped!
Putting my notes here, maybe someone can use them too. Start with a Magic Ring R1: 6x sc into magic ring (tighten ring after, 6 stitches total) R2: 6x inc (12 stitches total) R3: (sc, inc) x6 (18 stitches total) R4: (inc, 2sc) x6 (24 stitches total) R5: (inc, 3sc) x6 (30 stitches total) R6-R10: inc all around (30 stitches total) R11: (3sc, invdec) x6 (24 stitches total) R12: (2sc, invdec) x6 (18 stitches total) - fill ball after this R13: (1sc, invdec) x6 (12 stitches total) R14: invdec x6 (6 stitches total) - fill up rest of the ball Leave some yarn for weave in, cut off rest, stitch with needle under each stitch in the last row, close up the hole, finish with a knot, then take the yarn through the ball and cut off. Done.
THANK YOU SO MUCH!! On other videos i kept getting stuck on the inc and sc, not sure if the inc was increasing by 1 every time, but you explained it SO well!!! Thank you SO much!!
Thank you so much, I managed to make my first amigurumi ball. I was so frustrated and sad because I felt like I was dumb and couldn't do it but thanks to you I finally made the head for my future Tony Tony Chopper amigurumi. 🥺❤️
i love this sm it REALLY REALLY REALLY helped me ALOT. thank you for showing us a tutorial ❤❤ ive been struggling that past few months but when i saw this video it helped me alot Thank you so much ❤❤😭
idk why people didn’t find this helpful, i’m a beginner crocheter and this video was super easy to follow and i love how you didn’t add unnecessary information :)
The explanation is clear and easy to understand!.. I just made a ball, but I was surprised and thought it would be bigger than that, but it was very elaborate!.. I want to ask you how to make a ball bigger than that. I want it for my little cousin to play with as a ball, and I do not want to make an amigurumi.
I an trying hard for weeks but every "circle" is a total mess. I feel like i am counting right but i never come up to the right amount of stitches. With thinner cotton yarn it is even worse. But thanks for your explanation, i finally understand where to put the stitch marker. ❤
Is it ok if i use this pattern for the shape of my new pattern am a Beginner and im writing a pattern and this sphere is perfect for this. If i ever Publish the pattern or give it to someone so they can make it i will put you in credit,aswell as youer video its very helpful.
What if you want the ball much larger? How do we continue the increases? I think my understanding is to continue to add 6 increases in each row evenly spaced, but I'm not completely sure. Thanks so much for your video. 🙏🥰
Yes you’re correct! You know how there 6 sections for each row- for each row you would just add one more single crochet to each section. So if for the last row you did 5 single crochet stitches and then an increase and did that 6x around, for the next row you’d do 6 single crochet stitches and then an increase and do that 6x around, and for the next row you’d do 7 single crochet stitches and then an increase and do that 6x around, etc etc. Also, if you add more increase rows, you’ll want to increase the number of rows in the middle that don’t have an increase to keep the ball from turning into an oval. I usually do the same amount of no increase rows as I did increase rows. For the decrease rows you’ll have the same number as the increase rows and as far as stitch counting it’s the same process as the increases except your reducing stitches instead of adding them. I hope that makes sense! 😊😊
I'm trying to make my first amigurumi project and I was following the timestamps instead of the video and I was freaking out bc I didn't realize they skipped the second row
Hi, what’s the reason you went from 6 to 18 stitches when increasing but when decreasing it went from 18 to 12? edit: realized you forgot to put the timestamp for 6 increases in round 2
I get how to crochet and all but when I do these amigurumi tutorials, it always ends up looking like a cone shape and not a circle shape. Am I doing something wrong with the first 6 stitches or?
Hi 😊 When i try to make the ball at the start it always starts to curl up but when i watch the tutorials theirs is always flat. Is there a way to fix this, am i doing something wrong or is it my yarn?
Ok, 1.) Y'all can just slow it down. RU-vid has that feature. 2.) Of course this isn't beginner friendly. This is not a beginner pattern. Go learn the basics and stop blaming others
