As you know, Halloween is very short and I will try to share with you the types of amigurumi toys that you can make in this short time. I want to introduce you to the Squish amigurumi toy design, which has a very cute hat. The toy is actually supposed to be a little scary, but I think the crocheted toy has a very cute look.
Halloween Squish Amigurumi Pattern
Although the use of orange is very common in these types of toys, you can see that purple and black are especially used in toys, but of course changing the colors is up to you.

ASSEMBLY
• Sew the horn on rounds 5-7
• Sew the eyepatch over rounds 9-13, with 5 stitches between the inner edge for the eyepatch and the eye
• Sew the belly patch over rounds 15- 19, centered between the eye and eyepatch
• Sew the hat so that the increases in rounds 3 and 4 are on the sides of the hat. The hat should be sewn onto rounds 2-7 of the body, opposite of the horn. Place the sts between rounds 12 and 13 so the brim of the hat is free.
• Using black worsted weight yarn, embroider a mouth between rnds 12 and 13, centered between the eye and eyepatch and about 5-6 sts wide. Use some white worsted weight yarn to embroider some teeth on round 13 as well.
