Today I want to introduce you to an amigurumi pattern that is made in the shape of a cat but also looks like a ghost. First of all, I want to tell you that the amigurumi toy you see in the photo is a test product. You can make the toy in any color you want, but when I examined the test products, I honestly liked the toy made with orange yarn the most. My most effective reason for choosing here is that this toy has a special design for Halloween. For this reason, orange and green colors would be the right choice.
Plush Ghost Cat Amigurumi
The cat amigurumi toy has very large eyes and the lower part of its body has a frilled structure, just like ghosts.
