Spooky Halloween Trio Amigurumi This pattern is for a crocheted trio of Halloween Amigurumi. Pattern includes instructions for a Spooky Pumpkin, Spooky Ghost and a Spooky Witch. This is a fun project to get the kids involved. I utilized felt and glue for the facial features - if you do not want to use felt, you can crochet or embroider the face pieces. You can also use glue-on wiggle eyes.
