- Crochet hook that fits your yarnI used a G/6 (4 mm) hook.
- A darning needle
- A pair of scissors
- For the eyes, either a strand of black yarn or some stick-on eyes. I used 5 mm Plastic Half Round Flat Back Black Beads Eyes. These do not have adhesive on the back, so you will need a dab of glue to attach them. You can see several options for Worry Worm Eyes here.

- For the mouth, either a strand of black yarn to make a smile, or a small piece of black felt cut out into a tiny oval shape.
- Glue to attach the eyes and felt mouth.

Gauge

Gauge is not really that crucial for this project. Just try experimenting with different hook sizes & different weight yarns to get a gauge you are happy with for the project you are working on.
If your ghost worry worm looks narrower than you anticipated, try a thicker weight yarn.
If you want your ghost worry worm to be longer, just increase the number of stitches in your beginning chain.

This Ghost Worry Worm measures about 4.7 “ (12 cm) in height.
Yardage
Weight: 5 gmApproximately 7.4 yards (6.8 meters)
Notes
– You can use any type of yarn as long as you have a corresponding crochet hook size (check yarn label for recommendations).
– You can make the pattern larger or smaller by changing the type of yarn and/or hook size.
– Numbers at the end of each row (in brackets) indicate the number of final stitches in that row.
– Beginning ch 2 counts as a stitch.
– Please note that I use US crochet terms.
