What Is a Crochet Ragdoll Pattern?
This crochet kitty ghost pattern features a ragdoll-style design that requires a different construction method than typical amigurumi projects.
You make it by working two identical body panels, which are later sandwiched with polyfill and stitched together. You don’t need to know how to work in the round because the panels are crocheted flat in rows.
What You Need Before You Start
To make this crochet ghost amigurumi, you will need a couple of essential supplies. Prepare a soft worsted-weight yarn, like Red Heart Super Saver, in white, black, pink, and green colors. For the most part, you will need white yarn, so the ear, paw, and face details can be easily made from the scraps.
The pattern also calls for a small amount of stuffing and a 4.25 mm crochet hook or any size that will help you obtain the gauge.
How Big Is the Finished Ghost Kitty Ragdoll?
The finished ragdoll measures approximately 11 inches tall and 8 inches wide, making it a perfect plushie companion or decoration for Halloween festivities. To make the toy bigger, try switching to a larger hook and thicker yarn. You can also create a smaller piece by reducing the hook size and using fine yarn.
Make It Your Own – Customization Tips
