A4 PDF: materials, every round with a tick box, assembly and face

A free crochet bat pattern for a round, dark purple Halloween bat with tall pointed ears, spiky wings and two tiny white fangs. This amigurumi bat is one plump ball with pink-lined ears, pink cheeks, big shiny eyes and a little smile, and its scalloped wings end in pointed tips. It is worked in the round in single crochet with DK yarn and a 2.5 mm hook and is about 12.5 cm (5 in) tall with the ears; the wings are worked flat in rows and the fangs are embroidered. Follow the row-by-row pattern with stitch counts and turn the interactive 3D model to check every piece.

How to crochet the Halloween Bat

Beginner-friendly · 13 cm tall · about 3 h · DK yarn · 2.5 mm hook

  1. Crochet the 9 pieces in rounds: Body, Ear ×2, Wing ×2, Foot ×2, Cheek ×2 (62 rounds in all).
  2. Stuff and put it together in 5 steps; each one lights up where it goes on the 3D model.
  3. Add the face: safety eyes by round and stitch, or embroider them for a child under 3.

Every round with its stitch count is in the Pattern tab below, and in the free printable PDF.

What you'll need

Tick things off as you gather them.

Gauge

1 sc ≈ 4 mm wide, 1 round ≈ 3.6 mm tall (10 cm ≈ 25 sc × 28 rounds); yarn about 1.9 mm thick. The gauge sets the size of the toy; crochet tightly so the stuffing does not show.

Worked in

Continuous spiral rounds. Don't join. Move a stitch marker up every round.

  1. Size before assembly: about 8.4 cm at the widest, 8.1 cm long; 30 rounds.
  2. → Insert the safety eyes now (positions: see “Face”) and fix the backs. Start stuffing (firmly) and keep adding as you decrease.
  3. 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.

  1. Size before assembly: about 4.4 cm at the widest, 5.9 cm long; 17 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.
  2. 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 4.2 mm deep in front, a rounded back; about 44 mm wide. Keep the opening a curve, hollow side forward, not a straight line.<!-- (spoon 45 %) -->

  1. Flat motif — half circle (worked in turned rows, one layer of fabric), about 4.4 × 8.5 cm; 9 rows.
  2. 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.

  1. Size before assembly: about 1.6 cm at the widest, 1.6 cm long; 5 rounds.
  2. → Start stuffing (firmly) and keep adding as you decrease.
  3. 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.

  1. A flat circle about 0.9 cm across; 1 rounds.
  2. Fasten off leaving a long tail (30–40 cm) for sewing. Do not stuff.

    1. Body is the base; its magic ring is at the bottom.
    1. Ear → body (make 2). Centre: in round 26, 5 st from the centre front line, toward the toy's left (the one on the toy's left is described; sew the other as its mirror image). Sew around the opening (25 st); the seam covers rounds 20–29 of the body, about 10 st wide. Keep the spoon hollow side forward; the opening lies in a curve following the body, both layers sewn down. It points up and outward.
    1. Wing → body (make 2). Centre: in round 16, 16.5 st from the centre front line, toward the toy's left (the one on the toy's left is described; sew the other as its mirror image). Stand the motif on its edge and sew it on by its straight edge (the row ends); the seam covers rounds 17–23 of the body, about 1 st wide. It points outward and backward and slightly up.
    1. Foot → body (make 2). Centre: in round 5, 2 st from the centre front line, toward the toy's left (the one on the toy's left is described; sew the other as its mirror image). Sew the piece on by its closed end (last rounds); it touches rounds 4–8 of the body, about 4 st wide. It points forward and down. Press it into the base by about 3 mm.
    1. Cheek → body (make 2). Centre: in round 17, 7.5 st from the centre front line, toward the toy's left (the one on the toy's left is described; sew the other as its mirror image). Sew it flat all round its edge; it covers rounds 16–18 of the body, about 2 st wide.

    Safety eyes and noses go in before the piece is stuffed and closed (see the pieces above); embroidery is easier before the piece is sewn on.

    • Safety eyes with a printed glint 14 mm (on the body): between rounds 19 and 20, 8 st apart (count along round 19: about 4.2 st each side of the centre front line).
    • Embroidery in mouth thread (on the body), straight stitches through: (between rounds 16 and 17, 2 st from the centre front line, toward the toy's right ) → (in round 16, 1 st from the centre front line, toward the toy's right ) → (in round 16, on the centre front line ) → (in round 16, 1 st from the centre front line, toward the toy's left ) → (between rounds 16 and 17, 2 st from the centre front line, toward the toy's left ).
    • Satin stitch (on the body): in fang thread, a triangle about 3.8 mm wide and 4.6 mm tall, horizontal stitches, turned 180° clockwise (looking at that surface); centred in round 15, 1 st from the centre front line, toward the toy's right .
    • Satin stitch (on the body): in fang thread, a triangle about 3.8 mm wide and 4.6 mm tall, horizontal stitches, turned 180° clockwise (looking at that surface); centred in round 15, 1 st from the centre front line, toward the toy's left .
