While  learning  to  crochet I was always searching for free patterns that I could practice with and 

still  make  something  I  wanted.  I  wrote  this  pattern  with  that  in  mind.  A  free  pattern  that 
incorporates the most basic shapes of amigurumi that can be made by novice and expert alike.

3mm hook (​exact hook size isn’t important, as long as the stitches are tight​)

Tapestry Needle (for sewing)
Marbles/Rocks/etc for added weight. (optional)

8mm Safety Nose (optional)
Doll Stuffing

US Terminology used:
MC - Magic Circle
Sc - single crochet
Inc - 2 sc in the same st.
Dec - sc2tog
We will work in rounds. Mark the beginning of each round with a stitch marker or yarn.
