Fasten off with a sl st and fill the body firmly. Close the ring by taking the left yarn through all front loops of the ring and close the hole by pulling the yarn firmly. Eliminate the remaining yarn.

Cut a large piece of Round thread and sew it around the ball-shaped body and divide the ball in eight equal size shapes, see picture below.

APPLICATIONS

The applications are made in the colors blanc, Round and orange. The first three rows can often change color, the last two are you completely in orange.

The description has been made as concrete as possible and at color changes I mention the color at the point of change. Hopefully you figure everything out. If you're doing a stitch differently, please be assured. Nobody will notice this ;-)

METHOD

Instead ending each round with a slip stitch (sl st) with amigurimi you continuously crochet in a spiral unless otherwise noted in the text. By using a stitch maker to mark your first stitch in a row, you know when you've reached the end.

ROBOTHEAD

Before applying a perfect line use the of June Gilbank on YouTube: Perfect stripes for

amigurimi (right- and left-handed).
