Pencil:

With pink yarn,

Round 1: In a magic circle, SC 6, pull tight (6 stitches)

Round 2: INC each stitch (12 stitches)

Round 3: (INC, SC in the next stitch)* (18 stitches)

Round 4: BLO, SC in each stitch around (18 stitches)

Rounds 5-6: SC in each stitch around (18 stitches)

on the last stitch of the 6th round, switch to grey yarn

Optional: At this point, I like to add a cardboard circle the size of the eraser end inside the Amigurumi to keep the flat eraser shape. Cereal boxes are perfect for this.
