Love Ball Crochet Along

Love Ball Crochet Along Next up on the journey to crochet every poké ball we have the love ball! This is a super fun amigurumi pattern that uses a key and hole technique which allows the heart to lay flat. The crochet along will show how to do all of the relevant stitches and there will be cards to linked videos on my channel that deep dive into some of the more difficult stitches/techniques. As an early bird treat, the written version of this pattern, available on my Etsy, will be 25% off until June 7th, 2026. 🔊Announcement🔊 Congratulations to Moss’d and Found (a.k.a CurtnyCreates13) who is getting a free copy of the written pattern. She was the first to guess that we’d be making a Love Ball for the next crochet along! Moss’d and Found is a brilliant and witchy artist with a super cottage and whimsical vibe.
