Crochet Isaac


I've been playing this game a lot and it's awesomely disturbing. For those who don't know, this game is called The Binding of Isaac. This pattern is to crochet the main character. I do not own the character at all, he is a creation of Mr. Edmund McMillen, and he kindly allowed me to post this pattern.

Do not sell this pattern, don't try and claim it as your own, don't sell things made from this pattern.

Materials:
~ Yarn in appropriate colors
~ size G hook
~ stuffing
~ yarn needle

Isaac's Head

Start by making a ch 2 (or magic ring)
~ 6 sc in 2nd ch from hook (or in magic ring.
~ 2 sc in each st around
~ *2 sc in next st, 1 sc in next st* repeat from * for entire round
~ *2 sc in next st, 1 sc in next 2 sts* repeat from * for entire round
~ *2 sc in next st, 1 sc in next 3 sts* repeat from * for entire round
~ *2 sc in next st, 1 sc in next 4 sts* repeat from * for entire round
~ *2 sc in next st, 1 sc in next 5 sts* repeat from * for entire round
~ 1 sc in each st around for 6 rounds (you can even make it 7 rounds if you don't feel it is a round enough head)
~ *sc 2 sts together (1 dec made) 1 sc in each of next 5 sts* repeat from * for entire round
