When learning how to make crochet amigurumi patterns, it is a good idea to know how to crochet a ball or sphere shape. Here is a basic crochet ball pattern:

To begin, make a magic ring or you can chain 2 and work your first round stitches into the first chain.
The total number of stitches on each round is shown in parentheses.
You can mark the beginning of each round by using a bit of yarn pulled through the first stitch.

This cute little hedgehog was so much fun to make! 
Again, due to my dislike of sewing on and joining little parts, I have made it so that the ears and legs are worked into the rounds as you go. The nose, head, ears, body, and feet are all worked with one continuous strand. Then, the "back" piece is made and "spikes" are added.

I am so excited to be back designing patterns again! 
One thing that always bugs me about many amigurumi patterns is how you have to sew together so many little pieces. So, I set out to develop a pattern that is created from one continuous strand. No joining required!!
Here is the result: Itty Bitty Bunnies
