This ghost is so cute and fun to make! To start, we first make his whispy part of the head. We then work to the head, then the body. The whisp, head, and body are all one continuous piece.

After that, we make his arms, tail, and his pumpkin!

We’re starting to work the tip of the ghost’s head.
After this we will work the ghost head, which will also work into the body. They are all one continuous piece.

Sc in the 2nd Ch from the hook, Sc in the next 3 st . SlSt into the same st as before . Finish off the green yarn. Cut a very long tail on the orange yarn, about 15″Stuff firmly. Now take the orange tail and place it on a needle. Sew the top closed.

We will have the tail of yarn at the top of the pumpkin. Place the needle into the very center bottom of the pumpkin. Pull the needle out at the very center top of the pumpkin. Repeat this process about a total of 4 times. Doing this will make the pumpkin’s indents.

Now pin the pumpkin to the hand area of the ghost as shown and sew on with the remaining yarn.
