Crochet Bat Amigurumi
This little bat wraps its wings part of the way around its round body, and with tiny feet and rosy cheeks it looks far more cute than creepy. MJ Carlos of Hello Yellow Yarn writes the whole pattern out on the page, round by round, starting with 6 single crochet in a magic ring, and there is a video tutorial to crochet along with. Make one for a shelf, or a whole colony for the mantel.
