14. (4 sc, dec)x6 (30)
15. 30 sc (30)
16. (1 sc, dec)x10 (20)
The head is continuously filled.
Make sure to fill the area of ​​the cheeks and chin so that the shape of the head is particularly cute.

Do not cut the yarn.
Continue crocheting the seamless body with the white yarn.

10. (3sc,dec)x5 (20)
11. (3sc,dec)x4 (16)

Stuff the body while crocheting.
Especially the neck area is well stuffed with fiberfill so that the head does not swing.
The head will tilt forward a little if you stuff the back of the neck well.
12. (6sc,dec)x2 (14)
13. (5sc,dec)x2 (12)

Stuff a little more, but in the end it is just a little fiberfill.

Close the opening, fasten off, pull the thread until it forms a stitch at the tip and sew at the back.
The tip projects a little forward.

Arms

Crochet two in your base color, here white. The arms are not full.
1. 7 sc in MR (7)
2-10. 9 round 7 sc (7)
Leave a long tail for sewing.
Flatten the opening and sew.
The arms are sewn directly under the head, to the left and right of the neck.
Do not cut the yarn. Pull the yarn up to the middle of the body (to round 8) and create the navel (belly button). Sew from one stitch to the other and bring the yarn back pulling it tight.
The navel is now arched inwards.
Knot the yarn with another strand from the arms, sew tight and let both disappear into the body.

Phantom Cloak

Crochet in your base color, here white.
You can choose the same base color or choose a thinner cotton yarn or a thinner alpaca yarn, for example. It falls in the North.
Be careful not to crochet too tightly. I recommend using a larger crochet hook or if the yarn is thinner, keep the hook size the same.
Crochet in rows, the dcv does not count.

Start with a ch-sp of 19 ch.
1. 18 sc in the back “crossed loop”, dcv 18
Now continue crocheting hdc in each stitch.
The next row creates the opening for the arms.
2. 3 hdc, ch 3 + skip 1 stitch, 10 hdc, ch 3 + skip 1 stitch, 3 hdc (22)
3-8. 6 rows 22 hdc (22)
9. hdc-inc, 20 hdc, hdc-inc (24)

In the last rows the ends are crocheted.
10. [1sc, in next st: (2 hdc, 1 pico, 2 hdc), 1 sc, 1 sl st]
repeat this sequence […] 5 more times.
Cut the yarn and sew in the end.
Thread a ribbon through the top cuff and tie the cape.
You can also make a 55-60 ch ribbon

pico: 3 hdc, ch 3, a sl st in the first of the 3 ch.

Witch Hat

Crochet in your additional color, here black.
1. 6 sc in MR (6)
2. 6 sc (6)
3. (2sc,inc)x2 (8)

5. 12 sc (12)
6. (3sc,inc)x3 (15)

9. (2sc,inc)x6 (24)
10. 24 sc (24)

Leave a long tail (approx. 30 cm) to sew the hat to the ghost’s head.
You can scrunch the hat a little to show the shape better.

Mini Pumpkin

Crochet in your additional color, here orange.
Crochet in rows, the dc does not count.
Start with a ch-sp of 11 ch.
You are crocheting in each BLO stitch
1-12. 12 rows 2 dc blk, 6 hdc blk, 2 dc blk, dc (10)
Do not cut the yarn.
Fold the short sides of the rectangle over and crochet the outer loops loosely with sl st.
Now cut the yarn (about 1 meter) and turn the pumpkin inside out, so that the crochet seam is practically invisible.

Take your sewing needle and close the first of the two remaining openings.
Bring the yarn through the top edge of each row.
Bring the yarn through the center of the pumpkin to the other opening, to close it in the same way (don’t forget to stuff the pumpkin first).
Now create the pretty shape using the yarn like a cross by pulling your pumpkin. Pull the yarn very tightly.
Pull the yarn up and make the stem.
Make a loop, make 6 ch and 5 sl st. Secure the thread, place the pumpkin on the ghost’s head and sew.

Embroider the Face

Embroider each eye with fine black thread. They go through 2 stitches diagonally from round 11 to 12.
The distance between them in round 11 is about 5-6 stitches.
If you choose safety eyes, you place them in round 11 with a distance of approx. 7 stitches. In this variant, dark shadows under the eyes look particularly good. Take a fine black pencil and blend gently.

Open eyes: Embroider them in rounds 11 to 12. The distance between them is about 7 stitches.
Embroider the eyebrows in rounds 6 to 7.
You can embroider a cute little mouth or a funny, scary mouth in round 13.
Take your rouge or beeswax crayon and apply it to the cheek area.
