If you’re looking for a quick, adorable project to get you in the Halloween spirit, this mini bat amigurumi is it. It’s soft, round, impossibly cute, and small enough to finish in an evening — but detailed enough with its tiny wings, ears, and feet to feel like a real finished piece once it’s done.

This little bat is part of my newest crochet pattern collection, and in this post I’m walking through how it comes together, step by step, so you can see the construction before you dive in. If you love what you see, the full written pattern with complete instructions is linked in the post.
