I’m allergic to wool but would like to make this got a friend. Do you have a suggestion got a different yarn? Hi Jamie! Yes, the armhole shaping is right above the last row you crocheted. You are just shaping where the sleeve will fit. 🙂 I just went to my local JoAnn store to the ribbon section and bought it by the yard. It also sews in super easy, too, even if you aren’t good at sewing! It doesn’t take much – I even had some of the 1/4 yard left over. Hi! If I wanted to do this for newborn, how would I decrease my number of chains/ stitches? Thank you! Cut a small rectangle out of the center of the top of the fabric, about half the measurement of their arm circumference deep, to make a space for the child’s head.I adore the little bat costume and would love one for my new little Grandson. However I am not a crochet person at all, and my grandson is a tiny baby so I think the smaller size 6mnths would be far to large on him for this October. Could I ask to buy one from you please, already made up for a size up to 3 months. Row 11: Ch 3, (dc in next 9 dc, 2 dc in next dc, ch 2) twice, dc in next 9 dc, 2 dc in next dc, turn – 33 sts. Hi Meaghan. I haven’t sized it down for a newborn but you could try making it with a smaller hook. 🙂 I originally published this post in 2015 and I’ve updated it recently to answer several readers’ questions and add more detailed steps on how to make the bat wings. You can see more photos of our girls wearing their DIY bat costumes that year in our 2015 Halloween Photos. We considered putting in an official pattern in this post, but we thought people would have an easier time just sketching it out using the exact length of their children’s arms.
