row the stitching is created as one would create a flat weaving such as a placemat coaster or other woven article with the stitches flaring out so that no shape is started this differs from the current construction of spherical crocheted objects and is one important element of the invention the initial disc can be of any crocheted stitch combination upon which embroidery is placed a solid color is a common choice although crocheted designs can still be used for the initial disc creation usually contrasting colors are chosen so the embroidery is visually recognizable and distinct any combination of thread colors can be chosen for the embroidery step many commercial embroidery machines can be loaded many different color threads so that an entire multi color design can be done in a few seconds it is also important that a diameter of the initial disc is not larger than about 30 of the final circumference of the spherical crocheted object thus for example in a preferred embodiment if the spherical crocheted object will have a final circumference of approximately 7 5 u2033 inches the initial disc must be no more than approximately 2 25 u2033 inches in diameter when lying flat in order to work best for the embroidery as the width of the initial disc exceeds 30 the crocheted object will turn out less spherical and will look oblong or misshapen the diameter of the initial disc can be smaller than 30 of the final total circumference however a smaller initial disc reduces the area available.
