Sew arms between rows 10-11. Sew along the arm so it’s securedto the body (the arms should be sewn slightly in front of the ears)
Sew legs between row 14-18. The legs should be sewn 2-3 stitches in front of the arms. Ensure that the legs are not stuffed.
Once the leg has been secured to the body, pull the needle through the front of the leg, re-insert the needle back into the leg and pull through. THe leg should now be more flush against the body.
Sew the tail between rows 13-17, the tail should be stuffed firmly.

Long Spike

Step 1: ch 12, in the second stitch from your hook, *2 dc*, sl st, *sl st, ch 1* x 3, sl st once at the end of the chain

Fasten off, leave long tail for sewing.

Assembly

Align the long spike between the ears starting at row 1 of the body. The end of the chain so rest at the top of the tail on row 13.

To define the spikes, sew over the sl st/section between the spikes to create a more triangular shape.
Sew the short spikes directly behind the ears (row 3) at a slight angle.

The end of the chain should be slightly level/below the tail on row 17.
Define the shorter spikes by using the same method that was used for the longer spikes.

Finishing Details

(Optional) To add dimension to the plush shape the eyes. Begin with a new strand of purple yarn. Enter your needle into a random stitch in the body, pull the needle out of the body near the bottom corner of the eye. Re-enter the needle near the top corner of the eye, pulling tightly. Repeat the previous steps on the other eye.

(Optional) To add color to the eyes begin with a strand of red thread. Enter your needle into a random stitch in the body, pull the needle out of the body near the bottom corner of the eye.

To make this spooky coaster, you will need a 2 mm crochet hook, any yarn you like in 3 colors (burgundy, black, and white for embroidery), stitch markers, scissors, and a tapestry needle.

The stitches used in this tutorial are simple and beginner-friendly, like single crochet stitches, double crochet stitches, half double crochet stitches, and chain stitches.

Yarn of your choice in colors: Marsala 7136, Steel 8797, White 8001

Abbrevitions

Mr – magic ring

sl st – slip stitch
dc – double crochet
hdc – half double crochet
ch – chain
dec – decrease
inc – increase

Center

Use black yarn.

Rnd 1: 8 sc into magic ring (8)

Cloase with 1 sl st in the first stitch made and ch 1 to rise, it does not count as a stitch. We will work this way on all rows, finish with 1 sl st and ch 1 to rise.

Rnd 2: 8 inc (16)
Rnd 3: (1 sc, 1 inc) x 8 (24)
Rnd 4: (2 sc, 1 inc) x 8 (32)
Rnd 5: (3 sc, 1 inc) x 8 (40)

Rnd 7: (5 sc, 1 inc) x 8 (56)
Rnd 8: (6 sc, 1 inc) x 8 (64)
Rnd 9: 64 sc (64)

Finish here, fasten off and weave in the yarn.

Petals

Use marsala yarn.

Join the yarn in the back loop of rnd 9, we will work in BLO.

Rnd 10: sl st across the entire row (64) (these are the base stitches)
Rnd 11: BLO: work the first petal, ch 1 to rise, make 12 sc (12)
Rnd 12-13: ch 1, turn the work and crochet back, 12 sc (12)

Rnd 21-22: 4 sc (4)
Rnd 23: 2 dec (2)

Fasten off and weave in the yarn.

We have finished the first petal. Skip 1 base loop and join the marsala yarn in the next one, repeat the petal following the instructions from rows 11 to 23, when finished fasten off and weave in the yarn. Skip one base loop and attach the marsala yarn to the next.

Repeat until you have 5 petals.

Once the petals are done, we will make the outline with the gray yarn. Join it at any stitch, make sc around the entire flower, including the remaining sl sts, and when finished close with 1sl st and weave in the yarn.

With the White yarn, make stitches (embroidery lines) all over the flower randomly — there is no specific pattern to follow, make as many as you feel necessary.

On the back you can sew a piece of fabric so the embroidery stitches are not visible (optional), or as you embroider, weave the yarn between the stitches.
