Olya Samoseienko - Crochet bat pattern - 2021 2


MATERIALS:

1. Stuffing materials (I use hollow fiber);


2. Scissors;
3. Crochet hook (I use 2mm size, size B to USA classification. If you crochet with other
types of yarn, choose the size of crochet hook suitable for yarn's thickness);
4. Plastic eyes on the secure mount (10mm/0,39inches size) - 2 pieces;
5. Needles for sewing (blunt end, metal or plastic) and for pinning details;
6. Yarn for embroidery nostrils, eyebrows and mouth. I use Yarn Art Iris (100% cotton;
151yards/138m; 0,7oz/20g) color 935 black. You can use other yarn of suitable
thickness or yarn for embroidery);
7. Yarns (Yarn Weight: A (24-26 stitches), 5 ply, Sport, Fine, 12 wpi). I use:
Alize Cotton Gold Tweed (57% cotton + 40% acrylic + 3% polyester; 361yards/330m;
3,53oz/100g) color 616 purple (main yarn, for head, ears, body and wings). I use 35-50g
(1,2-1,76oz);
Yarn Art Jeans (55% cotton + 45% acrylic; 175yards/160m; 1,76oz/50g) color 36 pink
(for nose) and 74 light pink (for ears);
Alize Cotton Gold (55% cotton + 45% acrylic; 361yards/330m; 3,53oz/100g) color 55
white (for eyes);
Alize Softy (100% micropolyester; 126yards/115m; 1,76oz/50g) color 185 light pink (for
breast).
You can fantasize and choose other yarn's colors.
You can also use other types of yarn (similar in thickness and materials to the ones I
used, or other types). If you use other materials, the size and appearance of the
finished toy may differ from the photos in this pattern.

The following yarns can be used (they


are similar in thickness to the ones I
used):

40% acrylic; 175yards/165m;
