Little Crochet Farm’s Evil Witch Mini Amigurumi is a small Halloween character with a pointed black hat, a cape, and pale hair. This page is a project overview, not a complete crochet tutorial or a replacement for the pattern. For the full directions, visit the original Evil Witch Mini Amigurumi pattern by Little Crochet Farm, which includes written instructions and a video tutorial. The designer describes it as suitable for crocheters comfortable with basic stitches and amigurumi.
Project introduction
The character combines a green head and face with a purple body, a black cape and hat, and off-white hair. The pieces are made separately where appropriate and brought together during assembly. The original page pairs its written pattern with video support, so you can refer to the demonstration while following the complete directions. Use this overview to check the project’s materials, approximate size, and overall construction before starting.
Member?
The pattern is presented as free to read online. Its printable, ad-free PDF is a separate format, offered through a purchase option; the page also shows a member download route. These are different access options, and the free web pattern should not be confused with the separate PDF. Check Little Crochet Farm’s page for the current ways to access each format. No price is stated here.
More Spooky Mini Friends from Past Collections
Little Crochet Farm also names several mini characters from earlier Halloween collections. The costumed cats are Skeleton Cat, Mummy Cat, and Cat Dracula. Other designs mentioned are Little Witch, Mini Frankenstein, and Chubby Black Cat. Each has its own project page and directions, separate from the Evil Witch pattern.

Materials
Gather the supplies listed for the project:
- A 2 mm crochet hook.
- Green, purple, black, and white yarn. The sample yarn is 100% cotton sport-weight yarn; the hair section specifies off-white.
- Black thread for embroidered eyes, or safety eyes as an alternative.
- Stuffing material.
- Scissors.
- A sewing needle for finishing and assembly.
The source does not list stitch markers or yarn quantities. Refer to the original directions for any further project-specific guidance.
Finish size
The finished witch is approximately 3.1 inches (8 cm) tall. This is an approximate height, as the source notes that the result can vary with stitch tension and materials.
Gauge
A precise gauge is not essential for this project. The designer suggests selecting a hook that works with the chosen yarn and using a slightly smaller hook to keep the stitches tight enough to help prevent stuffing from showing. The source’s sample reference is about 4.5 cm across five rounds that increase to 30 stitches, using sport-weight yarn and a 2 mm hook. Treat that as a reference rather than a required result.
Useful Crochet Tutorials
The original page links to written guidance with images and video tutorials for techniques used in the project. Topics include making a magic ring, crocheting single crochet in the round, increasing, and making invisible decreases for amigurumi. Other listed subjects are back-loop slip stitch, color changes, front-loop single crochet, and fastening off amigurumi. Consult the linked resources if a technique in the pattern is unfamiliar.
Terms and abbreviations (US terms)
The pattern uses US crochet terminology. These fixed abbreviations help identify stitches in the designer’s directions:
- sc: single crochet.
- inc: make two single crochet stitches in the same stitch.
- dec: work through the front loops of the next two stitches, yarn under and pull through, then yarn under and pull through both loops on the hook.
- blsl: back-loop slip stitch.
Use the full pattern for the exact stitch sequence and placement in each piece.
Crochet Evil Witch Video Tutorial
A step-by-step video accompanies the written pattern. The designer presents it as a visual companion, which can help you see the stitches being demonstrated while referring to the written directions. The video and overview do not replace the complete instructions.
Head
The head is worked in green from the top down, with increases shaping the rounded form and decreases narrowing it before the color changes to purple for the body. The pattern includes the round-by-round stitch counts. Follow the original for those details rather than treating this summary as a set of working instructions.
Body
The body continues from the head after the head has been stuffed. Its transition uses stitches worked in loops of an earlier round, and the source notes that this section faces inward. The body is shaped and closed without adding stuffing; the lower portion is pushed inside the piece. Because the loop placement and orientation matter to this design, use the original instructions for their exact order.
Cape
The black cape is a flat piece worked from a foundation chain. It widens across rows, receives an edging, and is left with yarn tails for sewing. During assembly, it is tied around the neck with the slip-stitch edge facing outward. The complete pattern gives the row and edging details.
Arms
Two small arms are made, beginning in green and changing to black. The source closes each piece by crocheting its sides together and leaves a tail for sewing. The arms are attached to the cape during assembly; refer to the original for stitch placement.
Hat
The black hat is worked from a narrow top into a wider brim. Its distinctive uneven shaping is made by drawing yarn between selected rounds and pulling it tight, rather than by an even outline alone. A sewing needle is used for this shaping, and the finished hat is sewn to the head. Follow the full pattern for the placement and sequence of the shaping details.
Hair
The off-white hair is attached to a crocheted chain. The source specifies 20 yarn pieces, each approximately 12 cm (5 inches) long, with 10 placed along each side of the chain. It suggests adding more strands if a fuller look is wanted. The chain is positioned centrally on the head during assembly, with the strands falling at the sides.
Assembly
Assembly brings the separate pieces together: tie the cape around the neck, sew the arms to its sides, position and attach the hair, then embroider the eyes and make the small crocheted nose described in the pattern. The source gives placement points for the face and hair, and recommends arranging some hair toward the back before sewing on the hat. Use the designer’s instructions for exact placement and finishing details.
