Today, I am featuring the tutorial to crochet the MOST Creative and cutest crochet wind spinner of this year! Introducing the crochet flying ghost wind spinner that is gonna be the MOST ADORABLE companion in my “crochet Halloween wind spinners” series. The idea is to crochet a CUTE soul ghost plush, unlike the BOO ghost, which is the white curtain ghost, and below it, crochet a UNIQUE cone-shaped wind spinner. Everything is UNIQUE about this crochet ghost wind spinner, from the arrangement of the Halloween character to the shape of the wind spinner.

Also features the crochet white and purple spacer beads at the top and the bottom that make this ghost spinner an irresistible Halloween decoration. Its cute smiling gesture is perfect for welcoming guests, unlike a simple crochet Halloween wind spinner.

You can also crochet hugging or gesturing arms “saying Hi,” following any basic crochet doll arm pattern, and turn it into an even more welcoming crochet ghost wind spinner. Note that I am trying my best to bring you my favorite free crochet Halloween wind spinner patterns. So, be sure to keep following my series. For now, continue reading to learn more about this crochet plush ghost wind spinner with the turtle spinner!

Tutorial to Crochet A Plush Ghost Wind Spinner

This tutorial shows how to make a ghost wind spinner. First, crochet a spiral tail using three purple colors. The tail gets wider by using taller stitches like treble and double crochet.

Next, crochet a white ghost head and body. Add safety eyes and stuff it with fiberfill. Crochet a skirt at the bottom of the ghost. Sew the spiral tail to the inside of the ghost. Add a cute face with black yarn. Finally, add beads and a loop to hang your ghost spinner outside. It is a fun project for Halloween.

  • Crochet Hook: 2 mm.
