Halloween is coming... Smoky is ready... and you?

This pattern is for beginner/easy crocheters who are familiar with MR, sl st, sc, HDC, ps, inc, dec, FLO, BLO terms and have some sewing/embroidering skills. Smoky- the Bat is crocheted in continuous rounds with yarn under (YU) technique, a 3 mm (C2/D3) hook, and Schachenmayr -Catania Originals yarn (50gr-125m, 1.75 oz-137 yards), this way you will end up with a ~5 cm (2 in) item. Also the increases and the decreases are made with the invisible technique. Use stitch markers (or a piece of contrasting yarn) for the beginning of the rows.

You can crochet it with YO technique and with the simple increase and decrease too, but the finished item will be slightly different. Use any other kind of yarn just adjust the hook size.

Keep in mind that the measurements are for the specified yarn and hook size.

Read the pattern carefully before you start crocheting.

Abbreviation in the pattern (not explained later):

ps - puff stitch (with 4 yarn over)
[...] at the end of the row - [total number of stitches]
(...)x... - repeat instructions in parentheses x times

If you have a question, I`m here for you.
