Halloween Crochet: Crochet Ghost Pattern

Supplies

DK yarn

3 mm crochet hook

Needle for sewing in ends

Stuffing

Scissors

Crochet Abbreviations (US Terms)

Mr – magic ring

sc – single crochet

inc – increase (place two stitches in the same stitch)

hdc – half double crochet

Notes

This pattern is worked in the round using a stitch marker.

Changing your yarn will adjust the size of your crochet ghost. I used a DK yarn for the smaller, white ghost. Then, I used a super chunky yarn for the pink ghost and a DK yarn for the hat, making it smaller. Just be sure to adjust your hook based on your yarn.

The number in brackets is the total number of stitches per round.
