Free Amigurumi Pattern - "The Skittle"
The free pattern is available at my blog (exastris1701.wordpress.com)
Last week I was freakishly bored, munching on some Skittles, and fussing around with some purple yarn. An hour later the first amigurumi creation, dubbed "The Skittle", was born. Within 2 days I had 5 stackable Skittles and requests for 4 more.
These are super simple and quick to work up. Each is designed to stack one on top of the other too, which, I must admit is fun to do. I've gotten a stack of 5 full sized so far without supports. . . Hmm, yes, I suppose I do need a life . . .
But this is a nice enough diversion for now
Pattern excerpt:
Difficulty level: ** – Two stars – good for a beginner with just a bit of experience in making amigurumi.
Finished size: Approximately 2.25 inches from top to tush. But YMMV.
Head (x1)
Woked in a continuous spiral. Do not join rounds.
Magic circle 6 stitches
Round 1) Inc in each stitch (12)
Round 2) *sc, inc* repeat around (18)
Round 3) *2 sc, inc* repeat around (24)
Round 4) *3 sc, inc* repeat around (30)
Round 5-9) sc around (maintain 30)
Round 10) *3 sc, dec* repeat around
Round 11) *2 sc, dec* repeat around FO
I've posted the complete, free pattern on my blog. Hopefully it'll be of use to someone
Now go forth, make an amigurumi Skittle army! WORLD DOMINATION!

There are general video tutorials you can check out though. These might be useful: [link] | [link] | [link] - these are general help videos I've found on YouTube
I already made my little army (version sour) and I had a lot of fun doing them ^-^
Glad you like. I saw your little Skittle army; very cute!
Crocheting is not too hard once you get the hang of it. Like with most things practice, experimenting, and getting help from others can be really helpful
Also, I get the origin of your username. /Taps nose
Not many people get the reference
Yeah, it's not something even a lot of fandom people get. I love that motto, though.
