How to Crochet a Christmas Ornament Ball

[@sereathabracely920]

My students (5th) are really into "squishies". (They are soft toys that they can squeeze and enjoy.) I'm going to see if they would like these. I'm going to do them in cotton. Love this. Thanks! Happy Crocheting!

[@sound4daWeb]

I know a little girl who will love one of these! Her parents came from Seattle to see me. I better hurry before they leave! X

[@SecretYarnery]

Oh YES! You must. Takes about an hour for the first one. Much quicker after that. ;) xx!

[@pamelasmith1699]

You are an awesome teacher!

[@aiyana1975]

I think these are what my Xmas gift exchange fiber friend I got paired with from Ella's No Catchy Name gift exchange. I love them.

[@kimwheeler8414]

These are so cool I know some little boys that will be getting some of these for throwing, and I think I'm going to get some pretty sparkle yarn to make ornaments out of. I have a super weakness for Christmas ornaments and I love these.

[@SecretYarnery]

They make super great Nerf balls too, Kim! Great for an indoor ball fight! ;) xx!

[@michelleseager9782]

So stinkin cute!

[@SecretYarnery]

REALLY good for kid fights. ;)

[@SecretYarnery]

Oh yes! Good idea.

[@lauriecorkum5040]

I love how mine turned out. Made it for my son to use in the house. He has mini hockey sticks he loves to use but the mini puck was a little to hard when hitting things so this was the perfect solution & he loves it. Thank you

[@SecretYarnery]

HURRAY!!! Thank you so much for letting me know! We have massive ball fights in the house with ours... SO much more fun that "Christmas Decorations". ha ha ha!! xx!

[@christinnascreations9072]

At 37:16 I have to say "get out" that is so cool. Have to admit I was watching the whole time thinking now how.... Now those are on my list, 🤓 it's getting bigger and bigger. Luv yah 💕

[@SecretYarnery]

Awe! Thank you!! xx!

[@aiyana1975]

My list has been growing and growing to where I forgot half of what I want to do. Ill NEVER get to what all i want to make.

[@matildarei]

I broke 2 ornaments this year. I cannot be trusted with breakable ornaments. I’m making a dozen (or more!) of these for my tree so we don’t have to deal with the disappointment of shattered pieces of sentimental décor on the floor. Thank you, Christa. 💕

[@mariakristinahawl1640]

[@shawnfuller1319]

If anyone has any ideas or tips I struggle with the tops looking like a star ⭐️ but fun tutorial. Thank you 😊

[@SecretYarnery]

Make sure you go into each space the same direction - always from the top, or always from the bottom. Hope that helps? xx

[@teresamarine9723]

are there actual written directions to these holiday balls?....I love them...I want to make a bunch.

[@pamelasmith1699]

O made these last year and they were awesome, but eventually they rolled of the table and the dogs thought they were chew toys! I wanted to show them to my subscribers, so here I go, giving it another shot.

[@beadedwindsocks]

My name is Tammy. These would make great pompoms.

[@pamelasmith1699]

I'll be sure to give you the credit for the ornament ball! Probably record the video in a day or 2. It will say something in the title like Amazing Ornament Balls. Oh, I meant to ask you . . . I was planning to make an octopus amigurumi for my video.But I mark my videos for adults. If I make a toy that would appeal to a child, would that go against COPPA and them end up fining me?
