Notes and Tips:
Helpful to read these before starting and maybe even again when it's time to put your softie together
~Do not join pieces that are crocheted in the round unless otherwise indicated
~A stitch marker will come in handy when repeating rounds or another helpful way to keep track of your rounds is to, start all pieces with a long tail, pull the tail through the beginning stitch of each round.
~Attaching arms: Thread tapestry needle and secure on side where stitches won't be shown once arm is attached. Begin attaching arms by sewing through a couple stitches on the inside (about 1/2 inch down in center of arm), insert needle back into body going through to other side, repeat sewing through a few stitches on the inside of the opposite arm. Repeat sewing through arms at least 3-4 times.
~After your ghost is all sewn together, add a little powder blush to his cheeks.
