Amigurumi Beach Ball is an original crochet pattern by June Gilbank.

This is a fun no-sew pattern for summer - or for any time of year! Make a play ball for the kids, a set of juggling balls, or a stress ball to play with at your desk. Make it interactive by adding a squeaker, rattle or bell when you stuff it, or stuff it with plastic pellets to make your ball into a bean bag or hacky sack.

Yarn: Small amount of worsted weight yarn in six different colours (e.g. white, red, blue, yellow, orange, green, or any 6 other colours!)

Hook: US E / 3.5mm

Size: approx 2.75" (7cm) diameter. (Your gauge and yarn choice will affect the finished size slightly.)

Scaling the Pattern: As always, you can scale the size up or down by using a heavier or lighter yarn together with a correspondingly larger or smaller hook (see my article on Scaling Amigurumi for further details). The slightly smaller ball in my cover photos used a sport weight mercerized cotton with a US C/2.75mm hook, and measures 2.5" (6.5cm) diameter.
