Supplies for Crochet Bat Garland
Kick it off with some medium-weight yarn in Halloween colors: black, orange, purple, and green. The author used Red Heart Super Saver and Big Twist (Jo-Ann) Value Solids but you can go for any other yarn left in your stash.
To crochet these bat appliques, you will also need a 5 mm hook.
Crocheting Bat Appliques
This pattern is suitable for beginner crocheters. Make each bat individually in the rows using easy stitches like single and double crochets with some shaping. This project will appeal to those who enjoy working with detailed motifs.
Turning Bats into Garland
Connect bats using a simple chain stitch. This will allow the garland to drape beautifully, with each bat evenly spaced. Finally, adjust the length according to where you plan to hang it (over a window, door frame, or across a mantelpiece).
Inspiration for Decorating with Your Garland
The Bat Halloween Garland can be used in many ways. You can place it at the door, over a table, or even outside on the porch. The garland brings playful colors and sets an ideal vibe for Halloween festivities!
