How to crochet amigurumi Gumballs - Tutorial

Amigurumi Gumballs - Fun for Babies and Toddlers.

As everybody knows, children like small things because they can keep them easily in their hands. At the same time, toys can not be too small otherwise they can be swallowed.

Said and tried, I will show you how to crochet the small balls that
my little son Gustav likes so much. The best for him is putting the balls in a container and pick them out again! Many many many times in a row!! I gave him an old ice cream container and the cap - L0L - of whipped cream can, which can hold only one ball.

Here they are:


Supplies
• Medium worsted-weight yarn
• Crochet Hook 4.5
• Fiberfill

sc = single crochet;
st(s) = stitch(es);
