Thank you very much, Judy.

I took the liberty to translate the instructions to Estonian (we are rather crazy about making Christmas balls, all with the national patterns and such) and share them in my blog. I hope you don't mind. I've also got both of your videos linked there, with fond regards.

A life saver! I am knitting a hat, and I want to hang an eyeball off the end... (The hat looks almost like a brain)... this is most helpful! :)

@GothicRavenGoddess

I would love to see a picture of the eyeball and brain hat. Can you send it to me ?

I down loaded a pattern on how to make a childs ball. But couldn't undetand the directions. I've been knitting for only a month and figured I was many months away from learning this. I do have one question, If I do want to make I toddler ball how many stitches do I need to cast on? Thanks. I look forward to making more decorations to my tree.

@queenme02

sorry, I thought I had gotten back to you. You always start the way my pattern does and just keep increasing till you think it's the right size, then start decreasing.

@GothicRavenGoddess ugh. nevermind. my camera isn't coperating and its pissing me off beyond words. I'll have to do it later. I posted links to some pictures, on your main page. Hope you can see them.

@knittingtipsbyjudy better yet, I'll even do a video response :)

[GothicRavenGoddess]

I'll have to send it to ya in a message since it won't let me post the links. (I'd have responded sooner but I never got the message until yesterday!) :)

@RandomnessISJoy

you've probably figured this out already, but, yes, with magic loop method.

Is there any way to knit this ball on circular needles?
