Pattern Tester: How to Crochet Funny Mummy Scoop & Cone in Orange Hat Plushie

Author: Talha

I am a crochet designer, macramé maker and a crafter who also loves doing MATH.

I am back with another tester pattern to continue our NEW “crochet kawaii but spooky festival crochet treat” plushie series. Today, learn how to crochet this SUPER UNIQUE, funny black mummy in a smiling witch hat plushie by following a FREE written pattern for absolute beginners. This crochet plush ice cream cone has wacky, stressed googly eyes that will instantly lift your mood.

We will be crocheting the same shell-stitch-dripping, no-sew ice cream cone plush but in black and biscuit-colored yarn. I especially like its kawaii “1<” eyes and the white mummy bands made of just the super bulky yarn scraps.

Unlike my other crochet mummy plushie patterns, you can make the mummy bands instantly from your remaining white bulky chennile yarn instead. You will simply adore the face on the witch hat, too. Makes a great decoration as well. So, continue reading to learn more about this crochet plush sweet treat plushie!

Assembly & Detailed Finishing Guide

1. Eye Expressions & Attachment

Embroider Pupils: Using fine black yarn or embroidery floss, embroider details onto the white plush eye discs before attaching:
- Left Eye: Embroider a vertical line | through the center.
- Right Eye: Embroider a winking angle < or > across the center.
Placement: Sew or glue the two white eyes onto the front of the black scoop across Rnds 7–9, positioning them directly next to each other.

2. Wrapping the Mummy Bandages

Cut 3 to 4 strands of scrap white bulky yarn.
Forehead Band: Wrap one strand horizontally around the upper black scoop above the eyes (Rnd 6), securing the ends at the back with yarn stitches or fabric glue.
Mouth/Lower Wrap: Wrap another strand directly underneath the eyes (Rnd 10), slanting it slightly for a layered mummy effect.
Ruffle Wrap: Wrap a final strand near the base above the ruffle (Rnd 11) to complete the mummy wrapping pattern.

3. Hat & Accessory Placement

Stuff the top of the orange witch hat lightly.
(Optional) Embroider two small black dots for eyes and a small ‘v’ mouth on the front of the orange hat cone if desired.
Attach the small green bell to the hat rim using a jump ring.
Sew the hat tilted slightly on top of the black mummy head using the long yarn tail.
