#reblogging for convenience
People liked my blob ghost plush a lot and I got a request to post the pattern, so here.
You’ll need:
- Green yarn (for body)
- Black yarn (for eyes)
- Crochet hook
- Stitch marker/Scrap piece of yarn (to mark start of each round)
- Stuffing
- Yarn needle
- Scissors
Abbreviation key:
- sc - single crochet
- st/sts - stitch/stitches
- dec - decrease (join next 2 sts into 1)
- inc - increase (2sc in next st)
Pattern:
Round 1: Magic Circle with a base of 6 stitches
Round 2: inc x6= 12 sts
Round 3: (1 inc, sc in next st) x6 = 18 sts
Round 4: (1 inc, sc in next 2 sts) x6 = 24 sts
Round 5: (1 inc, sc in next 3 sts) x6 = 30 sts
Round 6-9: sc in the next 30 sts = 30 sts
Round 10: (1 dec, sc in next 3 sts) x6 = 24 sts
Round 11: sc in the next 24 sts = 24 sts
Round 12: dec x3, sc in next 12 sts, dec x3 = 18 sts
Round 13: sc in next 18 sts = 18 sts
Round 14: dec x3, sc in next 6 sts, dec x3 = 12 sts
Begin stuffing - Enough to make it firm but not stretch the yarn and have stuffing show through. Finish stuffing as you go.
Round 15: dec x2, sc in next 4 sts, dec x2 = 8 sts
Round 16: 1 dec, sc in next 4 sts, 1 dec = 6 sts
Round 17: 1 dec = 4 sts
Fasten off and leave a 4 inch tail for sewing. Sew shut, and hide excess yarn tail in body or cut it off.
Find where you want your eyes. Suggested along the 4th round, 3 or 4 stitches apart, oriented so the tail is pointed up. Sew eyes in a triangle pattern into two holes on the bottom and one at top, 2 stitches each side to make the eyes solid.
