Thanks for this! I recently got a cat from a local shelter and he came with these crocheted cat ball toys - which he loves! - so wanted to make more of my own for him! So glad to find this here!

[@Maddy-Marie]

That’s so cool! I’m glad I could help!

So cute! We have 3 rescues and this is a fun and fast way to add an extra toy into their world! ❤

[@Maddy-Marie]

That’s awesome! 🤩

This video was amazing as it is so beginner friendly, we have 15 outdoor cats here and they are gonna love these!

[@Maddy-Marie]

Wow that’s a lot of cats! They will love them!

Thank you for making this so clear!!! Also, idk how many people have a dollar tree near them but they sell (at least at mine) what looks little trash bins with a lid and wheels. They're so cute. I put all my clippings in those! if I don't have any polyfil and I do something small like this, I just use my little clippings. (I have three. One for my short ones that use use for fillings, one that I use for stitch markers, and one for longer clippings 6+ inches I use to sew appliques onto my work. All different colours.)

[@Maddy-Marie]

Those little trash bins are so cute and that’s a good idea! 👍🏼

What size hook did you use? What weight yarn did you use? This information was not mentioned. Size of hook and weight of yarn varies the size of your project as well as guage of stitches.

[@Maddy-Marie]

The size hook I used was a 5mm and Medium weight acrylic yarn.

Qq - why dont you do the same number of stitches throughout? Is this for spherical crochet? Just trying to understand the logic

[@Totallyducks]

Doing it too fast for beginners

[@Maddy-Marie]

You can slow down the video by going to settings and clicking on speed and there you can change it. I hope this helps 💕😊

[@Totallyducks]

@@Maddy-Marie okay, sorry

[@Maddy-Marie]

No problem

[@LisaT_]

You need to increase, as she mentions. It’s the same process with any circular crochet project until you have your desired size. For this you increase until you get your desired diameter, then decrease back down to make the sphere.
