♥ Free Pattern; Bat Amigurumi
Hey Lovelies! Do you enjoy fall so far?! Here there is a lot
of wind and rain, but I love it, specially cause al lot of fruits and nuts are
ready to collect. I love going out in nature and see what foods I can find.
It’s a good feeling to work for your food =P. Do you do this as well? Or do you
prefer to stay inside with this weather? ^_^
Since it’s getting darker faster now, every evening when I close my curtains, I
see a bat flying around, it’s so fun to watch! This made me inspired to make a
Bat amigurumi, it’s so cute~. I hope you will love it as well, do you see real
bat’s flying sometimes?

Crochet along the edge of the wing now. In the middle of the wing you can

Assembling
By using sewing pins, you can position all parts before sewing them on. This way you can easily move them around until you are happy with how it looks.
Sew the ears on to of the head of the Bat and his belly to the body. His legs go right beside, slightly lower his belly. On His back you will sew his wings. Position them however you like.
If you want you can sew on a little mouth, I didn’t because I like it this way xD.
I hope you enjoyed this new bat pattern and let me know if you made it! I always love to see works that are made by you, using my patterns, I always feel so loved!
Have a wonderful day!
Love
Danielle
