I’m beyond excited to share this Mini Scarecrow crochet pattern with you! This design was chosen by my wonderful Patreon members, and I have to admit, I was a bit nervous about how it would turn out. Capturing all the intricate details of a scarecrow in such a tiny amigurumi is no easy task! But I think you’re going to love the final result!
If you don’t know yet, this crochet Scarecrow is part of the World of Mini Halloween Amigurumi collection. Recently the Mini Ghost joined the crew! The elders from this collection are the Evil Witch, the Good Witch, and the Mad Wizard! You should definitely check them out!
I invite you also to look at the Halloween Cats in Costume with the Skeleton Cat, Mummy Cat, Pumpkin Cat, Pirate Cat and Cat Dracula!
And don’t forget the previous year’s collection, a lovely Little Witch, Mini Frankenstein, and the internet favorite, Chubby Black Cat!
