LUXURY BALL

This is part of a continued series of PokeBalls.  This is a Luxury Ball.  Luxury Ball is one of many PokeBalls available in the Pokemon video games.  This Luxury Ball can be made two different ways.  It can be made by simply stuffing the Luxury Ball with Polyester Fiberfill or by inserting a tennis ball where indicated.  I made the one featured in the photo with a tennis ball inside.

MATERIALS:
Worsted weight yarn: Black, red, and gold.
F crochet hook
Tennis ball or Polyester Fiberfill
Tapestry needle

LUXURY BALL:
Rd 1: With black, 6 sc in magic ring, slip st in first sc.  (6)
Rd 2: Ch 1, 2 sc in each sc around, slip st in first sc.  (12)
Rd 3: Ch 1, (sc in next sc, 2 sc in next sc) around, slip st in first sc changing to red.  (18)
Rd 4: Ch 1, (sc in next 2 sc, 2 sc in next sc) around, slip st in first sc changing to black.  (24)

Rd 15: (sc in next 2 sc, sc2tog) around.  (18)

Rd 16: (sc in next sc, sc2tog) around.  (12)
Rd 17: sc2tog around.  (6)
Finish off leaving a long tail.  Weave tail through sc of Rd 17, pull tightly, and secure.  Weave in ends.  Using gold, embroider gold line above and below Rd 4.
