Mobius Fidget Balls

Mobius Fidget Balls

A mobius crochet fidget ball is created by forming a single twisted loop that can be continuously pulled from the center. Great for stimulation or to help with anxiety. 

I didn’t invent these cute fidgets – but when I looked for clear simple instructions – I found that most were complicated to understand, and in US crochet terms.

So I tried a few different patterns, and decided to write down my own instructions in UK terminology.    dc = double crochet

Cotton or a cotton mix yarn is especially good for these - as they can be easily washed.

This is what I did ……….

Using DK yarn and a 3.5mm hook -

1.  Make a chain of 15 stitches, turn

2.  Miss the first chain, then work 1 dc in each chain stitch across the row

3.   Now you will join the row into a ring with a slip stitch - and you will continue by working in rounds. But this is the IMPORTANT part. Before you join – make a twist and join the last stitch you worked (which is at the top of the row) to the bottom of the first stitch you worked at the start of the row. The twist is what makes the infinity loop and it is all straightforward from this point !!  If you don’t make a twist you will end up with a tube shape.

Chain 1, and work a dc into the same stitch, then work 2dc in each stitch all around, join with a slip stitch (note - because you twisted the first row you will find that you are working into the base of your original chain). Now work in continuous rounds. Use a stitch marker to denote the first stitch if you find this helps.

5.   Chain 1, and work a dc in the same stitch, then work 2dc in each stitch all around, join with a slip stitch.

6.     Repeat the last round 3 or 4 times more, or until you are happy with the size of your fidget.

7.     Optional - For a contrast edge – work one dc stitch in each stitch all around in a contrasting  colour.

8.     Darn away ends.

Once you have made your first – the next one will be much quicker and easier. 😊  Have fun!  

For a tighter, smaller toy, use a smaller hook and thinner yarn; for a larger, "fluffier" result use a bigger hook and thicker yarn.
