Material

- Sport weight White cotton and a little bit of red. I used some Drops Safran
- A 2mm crochet hook (B/1).
- A tapestry needle (or yarn needle) to wave in the ends.
- Some stuffing (i.e. Fiberfill)
- A tiny bit of white felt for the eyes.
- 2 black pins and a wire cutter, or simply a black marker.

Abbreviations
st = stitch(es)
sc = single crochet
inc = increase (sc2 in a st)
dec = decrease, single crochet 2 stitches together (note : I always use invisible decreases)

Notes :
- Each rounds are worked in spirals : don’t join them with a slip stich. Use a stitch marker to mark the end of
each rounds to make sure you have the right amount of stitches before going on. I use a paper clip, it does work
just fine.

- I included the method to get a perfect circle when you crochet in the round (vs an hexagonal circle) in this
pattern. That’s why the increases and decreases are shifted from one row to the other.

Flatten the opening and sew closed before attaching to the body. Don’t forget to leave a long tail for this.

The bow Tie

As I didn’t design it, here is a link to a tutorial that will show you how to make it.

As it is in French let me translate the 5 first pictures.

- make a magic ring and chain 3

- Make 2 double crochet together (dc2tog), and chain 3
- Slip stitch and chain 3
- Make 2 double crochet together (dc2tog), and chain 3
- Slip stitch, pull tight and fasten off (leaving a long tail for sewing on Ghosty)
