Making Guide
Ditto:
Small circle:
1. Using color A, work 6 sc in the magic ring (6)
2. Inc in each st (12)
3. [1 sc, 1 inc] x6 (18)
4. [2 sc, 1 inc] x6 (24)

Large circle (make 2):
1. Using color A, work 6 sc in the magic ring (6)

4. [2 sc, 1 inc] x6 (24)
5. [3 sc, 1 inc] x6 (30)

7. Sc in each st
Fasten off the first circle, but do not fasten off the second. Attach the circles in a row.
With your hook still attached to one of the large circles:
- crochet 11 sts around the smaller circle, starting in the stitch after where you fastened off
- now crochet 32 sts around the second large circle
- then 11 sts around the smaller circle, starting in the 5th st from your last st in the small circle so that you have 4 unworked sts on the inside of the body
- now crochet 32 sts on the first large circle, starting in the 5th st from the start of the circle so that you have 4 unworked sts on the inside of the body (86)
Using a tail of color A or cotton yarn, stitch across the unworked sts to close.
We’ll refer to this starting point as row 2 for ease, row 1 being where you joined three circles.
- 2-9. Sc in each st
- 10. [12 sc, 1 inv.dec] x6, 1 inv.dec (79)
- 11. [11 sc, 1 inv.dec] x6, sc 1 (73)

- 13. 9 sc, 2 inv.dec, [10 sc, 1 inv.dec] x5 (66)

- 19-23. Sc in each st
- 24. [6 sc, 1 inv.dec] x6 (42)
- 25. Sc in each st
Insert the safety eyes between rows 20-21 (remember to count from the correct row as per the note on rows above) with 6 sts in between on row 20.
You’ll now make the top bumps.
Small bump:
- 26. Sc 8, now count 12 sts backward from your starting st, crochet across into the 12th st to create a new circle, sc in all 12 sts (20)
- 27. [3 sc, 1 inv.dec] x4 (16)
- 28. [2 sc, 1 inv.dec] x4 (12)

Sew the last sts together and tie in loose ends.
Stuff the Ditto firmly before starting the next part and top up as you go.
Larger bump:
- 26. Starting the 9th unworked st from the small bump, sc 22 (22)
- 27. Join in your first st of row 26, [3 sc, 1 inv.dec] x4, 1 inv.dec (17)
- 28. [2 sc, 1 inv.dec] x4, sc 1 (13)
