Description 

At our house we like to offer these on a plate. I offer you a free pattern!


Instructions 
  1. 1
    Step 1

    Knitted Eyeball

    With black Cast On 6 stitches.
    Rnd 1 Slide sts to other end of needle and knit into the first st cast on as for I cord। k to end.

    Separate stitches onto 3 needles (2st on each)

    Rnd 2 *k1, increase1, k1; repeat from * (9 sts)
    Rnd 3 with iris color k
    Rdn 4 * k1, inc 1, k1, inc1, k1; repeat from * (15 sts)
    Rnd 5 knit
    Rnd 6 with white k
    Rnd 7 on each needle, *k1 inc1; end k1 (27 sts)
    Rnd 8-10 k

    Now is a good time to weave in all the pesky ends you have thus far, turn eyeball inside out while still on needles, for easy access.

    Rnd 11 *k1, k2 tog, k1,k2tog, k1; repeat from * 18 sts
    Rnd 12 & 13 k
    Rnd 14 *k1, k2tog; repeat from *(12 sts)
    Rnd 15 k
    Rnd 16 k2 tog around.

    Break off yarn, thread thru loops, before tying off stuff with fleece, poking it in with a spare needle, fluffing to achieve a lovely spherical eyeball shape. Pull tail-end tight and weave in end.

    You might add a few red threads for some ghoulish veiny appeal.

I must make these! But I have no idea how to knit, I've only learned to crochet is it the same?....
