Cool Ghost is a quick, playful amigurumi project perfect for beginners. This little ghost comes with a Halloween hat, cool sunglasses, and expressive arms holding a cheeky “Boo!” poster - a fun way to add personality and festive charm.

You can use any yarn with a suitable hook, as long as all colors are of similar weight. The sample shown is made with 8‑ply acrylic yarn and a 3.5 mm hook, measuring about 6 inches tall from the top of the hat to the bottom of the ghost.
