Ideal Sphere

There's a lot of amigurumi balls out there, but I haven't seen such a perfectly shaped one before.

You could also use this pattern to make an orange (just stitch a mark on each end).

Another free pattern from Emily.

Katamari Ball

A crochet version of the magnetic ball from the Katamari game, which rolls around collecting metal objects, for some reason I don't fully understand.

Anyhow, it's cute.
