This is a written crochet pattern for the “Witch’s Cauldron (With Mini Ingredients)”. Instructions are included that explain how to make a hollow witch’s cauldron (that has a green ‘mixture’ inside), a removable green lid to cover the cauldron ‘mixture’, a fiery coaster for the cauldron to sit on, as well as five mini amigurumi ‘ingredients’ to take in and out of the cauldron: a toadstool, an eyeball, a piece of candy corn, an elixir bottle, and a pumpkin.

The pattern is available in both US and UK terms. The PDF file is 18 pages long with detailed instructions and lots of photos. In addition to Ravelry, this pattern is also available on my Etsy store to purchase.

This pattern is suitable for crocheters that are already familiar with amigurumi and basic crochet stitches/techniques (e.g. in US terms: MR, sc, hdc, dc, tr, working into ch-sps, working into FLO, working into BLO, colour changing, sewing crochet pieces together etc.). The majority of pieces are worked in continuous rounds. The only pieces that are worked in joined rounds are the cauldron handles, the fiery coaster and some rounds of the eyeball.

Materials & Tools Required:
• Yarn in colours of your choosing (all in the same yarn weight category as each other).
• A crochet hook suitable for your yarn weight.
• A small amount of red thread for embroidering lines on eye
• Toy stuffing for the “mini ingredients”
• Scissors
• Tapestry/finishing needle
• Three pins to help you when sewing the feet onto the cauldron (strongly recommended)
• Stitch marker (recommended)
