Supplies you'll need to crochet Voltorb

General supplies:

With Amigurumi you guage doesn’t matter much. Using smaller hook and yarn will make you finished Voltorb smaller, and bigger hook and yarn will make him bigger. Just make sure that your yarn and hook fits together and makes a tight fabric so the stuffing won’t show through!

For a smaller version, about 6 cm tall, or 2,5 inches, you will need the following yarn.

I reccomend Hobbii Rainbow cotton 8/4. This yarn is a 100% cotton and very nice to work with! With this yarn, I use a 2,5 mm hook (or a B-1 or C-2 should work too!). If Rainbow cotton is sold out, I can also recommend Friends cotton from Hobbii as a direct substitute. 

  • 1 x red
  • 1 x white
  • A bit of black to embroider the expression.

Assembly of your crochet Voltorb

There is no assembly in this piece. You only need to embroider the eyes and his mean expression. If embroidery isn’t your strongest skill, be sure to take your time to make the expression just right. If you want to avoid as much embroidery as possible, cutting pieces of felt for the eyes might be a good alternative for you instead.

And now your Voltorb is finished!
