Baby Bat Costume
"Crochet this baby bat costume for the little one in your life this Halloween. I used Malabrigo Worsted for this design and I can’t say enough about how much I love Malabrigo yarns!! The colors are always amazing and the yarn is a dream to work with. Any worsted weight yarn will do for this design if you can get gauge, but if you really want a costume to pass down to any other babies in your life, check out the Malabrigo. Enjoy!
