This quick and easy Halloween decoration is perfect if you're looking for a cute ghost to make as a last minute gift or for selling at any spooky season craft fairs.

While you do need a little bit of crocheting experience to make the Gwin the Ghost Decoration, you don't need to be an expert. Beginner crocheters should also be able to pick this pattern up and get started right away as long as they know the basic crochet stitches.

Materials Needed
*Yarn: DK/Light Worsted Weight yarn. I used Rico Designs Ricorumi in the following colours: White, Pink, and Black.
*Crochet hook: Size 2.5mm (2.75mm / C in the US will work fine!)
*Other materials: Stuffing, needle, scissors, pins, stitch marker, black and white embroidery thread (optional)

Ghost Decoration Size
With the yarn and hook mentioned above, my crocheted ghost decoration turned out to be 9.5cm/3.8" high (excluding chain loop) by 8cm/3.1" wide.

Gauge
Gauge is not required for this pattern, however for reference my gauge was as follows:
13 sc stitches on 5 cm / 1.96 "
13 rows on 5 cm / 1.96 "

Additional Information
*Pattern language: English
*Pattern terms: US terms (Click the preference icon to switch between US and UK terms)
*Stitches used: Magic circle, sc, hdc, dc, sl st, ch
*Yarn: The yarn choice is completely up to you, and you can change the yarn weight, material, and colours based on your own personal preference. Just be aware that the weight of your yarn may impact the hook size you need to use and also the size of your final make.
*Hook size: I recommend using a smaller hook size than recommended on the yarn label. This will stop the stuffing appearing through your stitches.
*Working in rows: This pattern is crocheted back and forth in rows unless otherwise stated.
*Construction: This decoration is made by crocheting two flat pieces. These two pieces are then joined together by crocheting around the sides. The decoration is stuffed as you join the pieces together. This is all explained as you move throughout the pattern.
*Copyright: You are more than welcome to sell your crocheted creations using this pattern on a small scale. However, the pattern itself cannot be reproduced, sold, or redistributed in any way without the designers' consent. For more information, please read the full copyright notice within the pattern.
