Gigi The Ghost

Gigi The Ghost is a real jokester, she loves playing practical jokes on her ghoulish friends.

Skill Level: Advanced Beginner

The pattern is written in U.S. crochet terms, complete with clear instructions and  pictures to help you along the way. Gigi The Ghost is crocheted in the round/continuous spirals without joining the rounds. I suggest using a stitch marker or different color yarn to keep track of each round. Gigi The Ghost is crocheted in bulky weight velvet yarn and is approximately 2.5 inches tall.  Be aware that size may vary depending on the yarn and hook size used. Gauge is not particularly important, just be consistent with the tension you are using. And most importantly, have fun!

  • Place 9mm or 10mm safety eyes between R4 and R5 leaving 4 stitches open between the eyes.

    Watch the step-by-step video tutorial for the eyes.

  • Sew on a smile between R5 and R6.

    Watch the step-by-step video tutorial for the smile.

  • R10: sc in next 2 sts, in the front loops only (3sc, sl st) 11 times {46 sts}
  • Add a bit of stuffing.

    I only added a bit of stuffing to give a little dimension to the body.

  • R11: In the first front loop only place 3sc, in the second front loop only place a sl st, then chain 1.

    Watch the step-by-step video tutorial for closing the body.

  • With the safety eyes facing down, sl st in the back loops from R10, going across 10 or 11 stitches to close the piece.

    It can be a bit harder to see with the velvet yarn so do your best.

  • Bottom of piece when closed with slip stitches.
  • Fasten off and weave in the end.
