Step by step Pattern

Starting with the pupil:

Round 1:

Start with black yarn. Make a magic ring and work 6 single crochet (sc) into the ring. Slip stitch to close the ring if needed.

Iris:

Round 2:

Change to your chosen iris color (e.g., purple). Work an increase in each stitch around (2 sc in each sc from the previous round). You will have 12 stitches.

Round 3:

1 sc in the next stitch, then increase in the following stitch (repeat around). You will have 18 stitches.

Eye White:

For Round 4:

Change to white yarn. 2 sc in the next two stitches, then increase in the following stitch (repeat around). You will have 24 stitches.

Round 5:

3 sc in the next three stitches, then increase in the following stitch (repeat around). You will have 30 stitches.

Round 6-9:

Work 1 sc in each stitch around for four rounds (30 stitches each round).

Decreasing for Eye Shaping:

After Round 10:

3 sc, then decrease by working the next two stitches together (repeat around). You will have 24 stitches.

Round 11:

2 sc, then decrease (repeat around). You will have 18 stitches.

Round 12:

1 sc, then decrease (repeat around). You will have 12 stitches.

Finishing:

Add toy stuffing to the eyeball to the desired firmness.

Round 13:

Decrease around until you have 6 stitches left. Close the hole, secure your yarn, and weave in the ends.

Veins:

Using red yarn, separate it to get a thinner strand for a more delicate effect. Create veins by stitching radially from the pupil area outward towards the white. You can randomly stitch in different directions to mimic the look of blood vessels.
Secure and weave in all loose ends.
