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.

Granny Stripes Crochet Blanket

 

Granny Stripes Crochet Blanket  

I enjoy crocheting blankets - this one is very easy. 

There are lots of ways to make Granny Stripe blankets - this is how I do it. 

3 treble crochet stitches are made together to form a little cluster, just as they are in Granny Squares, but instead of working in rounds, they are worked in rows.

The blankets can be worked in one colour throughout, but I have fun choosing colours to go together. 

Requires:

DK yarn – in 1 or more colours

4mm hook

 Terminology:

This pattern uses UK terminology

ch = chain        tc = treble crochet         

For a blanket of around 25”,  chain 100

For a blanket of around 36”,  chain 145

 

It is easy to adjust the size of your blanket – simply +/- in multiples of 3       ( 100  +/-    3, 6, 9, 12 ………)

Instructions:   

Chain 100

Row 1:  1 tc into the third chain *skip 2 stitches, work a 3tc cluster into the next stitch, repeat from *across row, 2 tc into the last chain, ch 2, turn  

Row 2: Work a 3tc cluster into the first space between the clusters, *work a 3tc cluster into next space between clusters of the previous row, repeat from * across row,  end with one tc into the top of the ch 2 at the end of the row. Cut yarn, fasten off, turn  

Row 3: Join in next colour, chain 3 and 1tc in the first space, *3tc clusters into next space, repeat from * across row, 2tc in the top of the ch 2 at the end of the row, ch 2, turn  

Row 4: Work 3tc clusters in all the spaces across as in row 2, end with one tc into the top of the ch 2 at the end of the row. Cut yarn, fasten off, turn

Repeat rows three and four until you are happy with the length of your blanket. I usually make blankets square, or a little longer than their width.    

Darn away ends 

Add a border all around if desired.  

You can, of course change colours every 4 or 6 or more rows, if you prefer.
