RE: Crocheting a head ... progress
I admire your ability to create such lovely things WITHOUT a pattern. You must be a really confident crocheter! It'll be interesting to see the finished squirrel. :D
Oh and that digestive system is something to admire, hope you're making great progress with it!
Thanks @vliet, but as you know after a while in crochet you apply a common set of principles.
If you want a flat round shape you need to increase at 'regular intervals' and if you change that or include decreases, you change the shape...
In a way I use similar principles to the stress balls that @ivan-g crocheted some time ago for the squirrel head, by adding the 'nose bit' I ended up with an oval shape.
I'm now working out the body shape, so if I start from the base, that will be a flat round shape. In a way it will be similar to @mrscwin's crochet colour pop baskets.
I may just use a more oval shape though... I'm considering the options at the moment.
