Free crochet bat ornament pattern: a Bat in a Santa Hat Ornament amigurumi, about 11 cm tall in DK yarn with a 2.5 mm hook. It is a round black bat with big white eyes, tiny fangs, pink inner ears, spread dark grey wings and a little red Santa hat with a white pompom that carries the hanging loop. You need about 70 m of yarn: 30 m black, 10 m dark grey, 10 m red, 10 m white, 5 m pink and 5 m light pink. Plan on roughly 2 hours. A great ornament for spooky-cute Christmas trees and for friends who love both bats and holidays. It also works as a small desk decoration. Rotate the 3D model to see the wings and hat, and follow the round-by-round pattern.

- Size before assembly: about 6.6 cm at the widest, 5.4 cm long; 22 rounds.
- → Insert the safety eyes now (positions: see “Face”) and fix the backs. Start stuffing (firmly) and keep adding as you decrease.
- Top up the stuffing if needed. Fasten off leaving a 15 cm tail; with the needle weave it through the front loops of all 6 stitches of the last round, pull tight and hide the end inside.
- Size before assembly: about 3.2 cm at the widest, 4.1 cm long; 12 rounds. Multi-colour rounds are listed stitch by stitch from the round-start marker; keep the round start on the piece's centre front line (as it sits on the finished toy). The order is for right-handed crocheting (right to left on the outside); left-handed: reverse it.
- Fasten off leaving a long tail (30–40 cm) for sewing. Stuff it lightly — a thin layer, just enough to hold the walls apart: the ear about 10.8 mm thick, with thick rounded edges. Then shape it into a spoon: push the front wall toward the back wall — a concave spoon about 3 mm deep in front, a rounded back; about 32 mm wide. Keep the opening a curve, hollow side forward, not a straight line.<!-- (spoon 45 %) -->
- Flat motif — half circle (worked in turned rows, one layer of fabric), about 4.1 × 7.8 cm; 9 rows.
- Fasten off leaving a long tail (~30 cm) for sewing. Do not stuff. Weave in the starting tail, pin the motif out to shape on a soft surface and steam it lightly.
- Size before assembly: about 3.1 cm at the widest, 4.8 cm long; 14 rounds.
- Change to white (pull it through on the last yarn-over of R11).
- Fasten off leaving a long tail (30–40 cm) for sewing. Do not stuff. Bend ≈ 115° around round 7<!-- the bend spreads over 5 rounds -->. Bend the piece so the inner side of the bend faces toward the toy's right on the finished toy (on the piece: in round 7, 4.5 st from the centre front line, toward the toy's right <!-- st 4.65 right -->). It is a gradual bend: with the needle and matching yarn run a line of stitches along the inner side from round 4 to round 9, one stitch in every round along one column, then pull the yarn until the piece bends to the angle (the inner side gathers by about 5 rounds) and fasten off inside.
- Size before assembly: about 2.3 cm at the widest, 1.9 cm long; 7 rounds.
- → Start stuffing (firmly) and keep adding as you decrease.
- Top up the stuffing if needed. Fasten off leaving a 15 cm tail; with the needle weave it through the front loops of all 6 stitches of the last round, pull tight and hide the end inside.
- A flat circle about 0.9 cm across; 1 rounds.
- Fasten off leaving a long tail (30–40 cm) for sewing. Do not stuff.
- Size before assembly: about 2 cm at the widest, 0.7 cm long; 2 rounds. Each piece is two circles (front and back): make 2 circles — 1 as below and 1 plain in red (same rounds, no colour changes).
- Fasten off. Hold a front and a plain circle wrong sides together and sc around through both layers: 16 sc. Do not stuff. Leave a long tail (~30 cm) for sewing.
