Materials Needed for Counting game Amigurumi Pattern

Assembly Instructions

• Sew each crocheted number (letters) securely onto its matching white circle base using a yarn needle; position the number centered on the circle and use small whipstitches around the edges for a neat finish.
• Arrange and sew any multi-part numbers (for example number 3) directly onto their white base by placing the parts in position and stitching through both the number and the base to join.
• Place the balls into their corresponding numbered bowls for storage and matching play; group the correct quantity of balls per bowl (1 purple ball in bowl 1, 2 dark blue balls in bowl 2, etc.).
• Sew sign squares onto the white bases or keep them as separate patches; secure plus, minus and equal signs by sewing the small sign pieces together first (if required) then attaching to the square base.
• Hide and weave in all loose ends after assembly and block pieces lightly if needed to flatten number bases and sign squares for a tidy look.
• If you closed the last row of a ball using a needle in the BLO, make sure to pull firmly to close the hole and weave the tail inside the ball to avoid loose ends.

Important Notes

• 💡This pattern is written in US terminology and is worked in continuous rounds unless otherwise stated.
• 💡Use stitch markers to mark the first stitch of each round especially during increases and when working in the BLO to keep track of rounds.
• 💡Stuff balls firmly but evenly and avoid overstuffing bowls to preserve shape; adjust stuffing while shaping to keep pieces symmetrical.
• 💡Cut yarn, hide threads and weave in ends neatly as you finish each piece to maintain a tidy final appearance.

This colorful counting game makes learning fun and tactile, perfect for little hands and classroom play. Make a full set to gift or use in Montessori-style activities that encourage counting and color recognition. You will love how bright and durable each bowl, ball, and number looks after finishing! 🧶🎨
