Ever wanted to have a lil ghost friend that you can carry around with you all the time? Well, now that dream can become a reality with the Ghost Friend Backpack! This adorable friend would make a great Trick-or-Treat bag or a fun addition to your spoopy ensemble.

The Ghost Friend Backpack is a low sew pattern; the only sewing involved is to attach the straps, and add a liner (optional). I have a full video tutorial available on my YouTube channel as well, if you are a visual learner or find yourself in need of more instruction.

Materials:

Approx 150yds White blanket yarn (I used Premier Basix Chenille in Winter White)

6.5mm crochet hook

Scissors

Sewing needles & pins

Stitch markers

20mm round black felt eyes & adhesive/glue for eyes OR black acrylic yarn & 3.75mm hook to make crocheted eyes

12-18 inches black blanket yarn (for mouth. You could use felt instead, if preferred)

Black sewing thread (to secure mouth)

18-24 inches of pink blanket yarn, for rosy cheeks

1 inch D ring (For single strap option)

White worsted weight yarn for strap & drawstring, or straps & drawstring of your choice (see suggestions below in Straps section)

A handful of Poly-Fil stuffing (for arms)

If you’d like to line your bag, you will also need:

Fabric of your choice, approx 22 x 13 inch rectangle
