Amigurumi Ghost Pattern

by CuteLambKnitting



Skill level: Easy
You’ll need to know how to make single crochet stitches, how to crochet in the round and how to cross stitch.

Finished Size: Approximately 4 cm (1.6 inches) high. 

Materials and tools:
ü Acrylic yarn
ü Crochet hook that is suitable for your yarn
ü White yarn to make your ghost
ü Black yarn to make the eyes
ü Small amount of stuffing
ü Black thread for sewing the eyes
ü Pink yarn for cross stitching
ü Yarn needle and sewing needle

Pattern:
Body
The Ghost body is worked in the round from top to bottom. Using white yarn, start with a magic ring (or adjustable ring).
Row 1: Using white yarn crochet 6 sc into an adjustable ring. ( 6 sc )
Row 2: 2 sc in each st around. (12 sc)
Row 3: (sc in next st, 2 sc in next st) 6 times. (18 sc)
Row 4: (2sc in the next two st, 2sc in next st) 6 times. (24 sc)
Row 5: (3sc in the next three st, 2sc in next st) 6 times. (30 sc)
Row 6-16: sc in each st around. (30 sc per round)
Finish off and cut yarn.

Eyes (make two)
Row 1: Using black yarn crochet 6 sc into an adjustable ring. ( 6 sc )
Row 2: 2 sc in each st around. (12 sc)
Finish off, leaving a long tail for sewing, and cut yarn.
Sew the eyes to the toy. (I recommend sewing them before stuffing the toy, so it’s easier to do it).
The centre of the eyes should be in line with the 8th round of the body, and about 5 stitches apart.
Use black thread to embroider a tiny mouth.
Use pink yarn to cross stitch small cheeks. Make 2 cross stitches under each eye.

Bottom:
Row 1: Using white yarn crochet 6 sc into an adjustable ring. ( 6 sc )
Row 2: 2 sc in each st around. (12 sc)
Row 3: (sc in next st, 2 sc in next st) 6 times. (18 sc)
Row 4: (2sc in the next two st, 2sc in next st) 6 times. (24 sc)
Row 5: (3sc in the next three st, 2sc in next st) 6 times. (30 sc)
Finish off, leaving a long tail for sewing, and cut yarn.

Stuff the body of your ghost and sew the bottom to it like it shows on the following pictures (4-7).

Here you have your own lovely Ghost!
