Meet Cedric The Cute Crochet Bat

Once upon a Halloween night, Cedric the bat had a big problem: he couldn’t find his favorite spooky snack—Monster Munchies! Every bat knew they were the best treats around, but they were hidden in the spooky, cobweb-filled castle on Haunted Hill.

Cedric flapped his wings, determined. “I’m going to get those Monster Munchies!” he declared. As he swooped into the castle, he heard a ghost moan, “Boo!” Cedric shrieked, flapping faster than a bat in a windstorm.

“Chill out, buddy! I’m just trying to scare the spiders!” the ghost chuckled. Cedric rolled his eyes. “Not even spooky!”

He dodged a skeleton that was busy doing the cha-cha and zapped into the candy room. But instead of Monster Munchies, he found a sign: “Out of Stock—Try the Ghostly Grapes!”

“Ugh, I guess I’ll be mummified in disappointment,” he sighed. Just then, the ghost floated in, holding a stash of Monster Munchies. “I found them!”

Cedric gasped, “You’re my ghostly hero!” They shared the munchies, laughing as the skeleton joined in with more dance moves, turning the spooky castle into a Halloween disco.

Finished Size

The finished size of this amigurumi bat is about 6.5 inches (16.5cm) tall from base to tip of ear and about 7 inches (18cm) from wing tip to wing tip.

Gauge

For this project, you don't have to worry about the gauge, but it's crucial to keep the stitches tight.

This stops the stuffing from popping out. If you see the filling showing, try using a smaller hook to make the stitches tighter.
