The Crochet Pokéball Footbag pattern was a challenging creative endeavor for me. Because footbags work best with little-to-no thread inside the bag in order to make room for as many plastic pellets as possible, this pattern is worked in the round for only the first few rounds, and then rows so as to minimize the amount of cut, loose thread. The end result is still a round ball, but I chose this creative workaround, again, to minimize loose thread in what is an attractive footbag in its final state. The directions are as detailed as possible, but there is also a video tutorial if the instruction prove counter intuitive here: https://youtu.be/IVzPUcuAJLg

These are great for juggling. I don’t kick my footbags around, I juggle with them!
Enjoy!
