Spiral Hackysack

These hackysacks are quick to make, plus they only use up slightly less than 10 yards, so they are perfect for random little balls of yarn you have lying around. They make great gifts for kids and can be stuffed with polyfill for some soft balls to throw around. I realized that the technique for making the spirals might be a bit confusing. I've also made a little [tutorial][1] to explain the first two rounds. *Pattern updated: July 23, 2011* **This pattern is written US terms.** **Additional Information** Materials: -About 10 yards each of worsted weight MC and CC. -Size G Hook (4.0 mm) -Split ring marker or scrap yarn -Tapestry needle -Pony beads (or other stuffing) Abbreviations MC – main color CC – contrast color sc – single crochet sc2tog – single crochet 2 together rnd - round ch – chain pm – place marker [1]: http://yulianknits.wordpress.com/2010/04/24/spiral-hackysack-tutorial/
