How It Works

1. Input Your Measurements

  • Sphere Diameter: Enter the diameter of your desired sphere in inches.
  • Stitches per Inch: Specify your stitch gauge (number of stitches you crochet per inch).
  • Rows per Inch: Provide your row gauge (number of rows per inch from your swatch).

2. Calculations

  • Total Stitches per Row: The calculator determines the total stitches for each row based on the sphere’s circumference:
    • Circumference = π × Diameter
    Total Stitches = Circumference × Stitches per Inch
  • Total Rows: The calculator calculates the number of rows needed to form half of the sphere using the radius:
    • Radius = Diameter ÷ 2
    Total Rows = Radius × Rows per Inch
  • Increase/Decrease Pattern: The tool suggests the number of stitches to increase per row in the first half and to decrease in the second half to create a smooth sphere.

3. Results

  • The calculator displays the total stitches per row for the sphere.
  • It provides a detailed step-by-step pattern guide for increasing and decreasing stitches to achieve a perfect sphere shape.

4. Use It in Your Crochet Projects

With the results, you can easily create spheres of any size for amigurumi, ornaments, or other creative projects. This calculator simplifies the math, so you can focus on crocheting!
