Amigurumi Evil Witch Crochet Pattern

Este post también está disponible en: Español Français

Of course not all witches are evil, but it happens again and again that one or the other witch turns to the less good side and starts to eat children and distribute poisonous apples.

Fortunately, evil witches are usually very easy to recognize by the color of their skin, a poisonous green (caused by committing evil deeds), which is why it is relatively easy to avoid them.

In case you want to have a permanent reminder of what evil witches look like, you can crochet this little amigurumi witch yourself to keep an eye on which ladies you should avoid.

This evil witch is crocheted with chain stitches, slip stitches, single crochet stitches, loop stitches, half double crochet stitches and double crochet stitches in spiral rounds and in rows and is easy to crochet.

The depicted amigurumi evil witch has been crocheted with the “Schachenmayr Catania” yarn with a 2.5 mm crochet hook and has sitting a height of 5.5 cm.
