Witch Hat Pumpkin House and Bat Amigurumi Crochet Kit by Wizardi F07N8-M103

A green pumpkin house with a purple witch-hat roof, a friendly bat and a little pumpkin; the house doubles as a small candy pouch. It is a complete amigurumi crochet kit for beginners: you crochet the pieces, stuff them and stitch them together into a little keepsake you made yourself.

Witch hats, bats and black cats have been the cast of Halloween since its roots in Samhain, the old Celtic festival marking the end of the harvest. Every amigurumi starts with a magic ring and a spiral of single crochet stitches; once you know those two things you can make almost any shape.

Why this kit: a beginner-friendly pattern built from basic stitches worked in the round; practice yarn to warm up on before you start the real piece; and video tutorials plus an illustrated brochure, so you can follow along step by step.

Kit includes: green, purple, orange, brown, lilac and black yarn, practice yarn, crochet hooks, a yarn needle, stitch markers, fiberfill, safety eyes with backs, a basic brochure and drawing instructions, in a Halloween gift box. Video tutorials are available to follow along. Not included: scissors.

Start with the video tutorials and practice the basic stitches on the practice yarn, then follow the pattern one piece at a time: crochet each part in rounds, mark the start of every round with a stitch marker, stuff it with fiberfill and sew the parts together with the yarn needle. The finished pieces are decorations for adults and teens, not toys for young children, as safety eyes and small parts can be a choking hazard.

Finished size: house about 3.74 x 6.29 in (9.5 x 16 cm), pumpkin about 2.08 x 1.49 in. It is a natural fit for a Halloween shelf, a mantel or a porch table, and makes a thoughtful gift for a Halloween lover or a spooky-season host.
