Saludos querida comunidad, la inspiración a veces viene de los lugares más inesperados, hace unos días estaba viendo mis redes sociales y vi una página de moda llamada Lolita Wardrobe que compartió una adorable abrigo con aspecto de murciélago, cada vez que observo ese tipo de ropa tan hermosa solo imagino como sería vivir en un país donde existan las estaciones de otoño e invierno, porque aquí en Venezuela nunca podría usar un atuendo como ese, sin embargo, pensé que sería lindo hacer un amigurumi de una niña vestida de esa manera, de este modo siento la misma emoción.
Greetings dear community, inspiration sometimes comes from the most unexpected places, a few days ago I was browsing my social networks and I saw a fashion page called Lolita Wardrobe that shared an adorable bat-like coat, every time I see that type of clothing so beautiful I just imagine what it would be like to live in a country where there are autumn and winter seasons, because here in Venezuela I could never wear an outfit like that, however, I thought it would be nice to make an amigurumi of a girl dressed that way, from this way I feel the same emotion.
Proceso / Process
The first thing I had to do then was the girl who would wear the bat coat, for this I used acrylic yarn and #4 crochet hook (1.25mm), I started at the feet making some shoes with black yarn followed by a row with lilac color to resemble some socks, then the leg with beige thread, when making the two legs I joined them with two chains, in the next row I would replace the chains with single crochet on each side, to continue making the torso.
I made the arms apart, so that when I reached the height of the torso, I continued joining the arms from side to side to later make the decreases from the shoulders to the neck.
I made the dress with purple thread but I still don't understand why every time I photograph this color it looks dark blue, I think it has to do with the color levels of the camera but my phone doesn't have a photo editor like Photoshop computers, so if you have any information about a free mobile application that can be useful for me to adjust the colors, I will appreciate it if you leave me a comment. The dress is made with a fancy fan stitch.
After placing the dress on the girl's body, I continued making the head, then the ears and nose with the same beige thread, finally with sewing thread I embroidered the eyes and eyebrows.
For the hair I used purple yarn, I started with 6 basic chains, on each chain I made 1 single crochet 25 chains and 25 single crochets in the chains, twice on each side of the basic chain, in this way I obtained 24 curls, which I sewed alternately over the head, leaving loose curls on top. I love this type of hair.
The bat coat was the reason why I decided to make the amigurumi so I had to put all my effort to achieve the closest resemblance to the coat that inspired me, I started by making 6 single crochet in a ring and 6 increases for five rows, then 7 rows no increases. Then I made 14 double crochets and 7 increases for six rows, I made two rows without increases and a row of peaks, then I made a final row with lilac thread.
For the ears I made two parts of lilac color and two black parts, I joined them with a black row. For the eyes I made two white ovals and two black circles that I sewed to the face, while the nose is a small lilac oval.

Este pequeño amigurumi mide 11 cm sin el abrigo y 12.5 con este, pero es tan grande la alegría que siento al haber hecho este proyecto, estos días estoy sin conexión en casa y solo a veces acudo a casa de un vecino a conectarme para poder publicar en Hive, esto a sumado mucho estrés pero siempre he dicho que mis hilos y agujas me salvan de las peores circunstancias, pues como terapia ayuda mucho a la concentración y también a olvidarse por un rato de todos esos problemas domésticos que se van acumulando, les deseo una buena semana y además les recuerdo de aun tienen tiempo para participar en el Halloween Challenge: Máscaras hechas con aguja , en donde estarán participando por 15 Hive, cortesía de mi parte y de nuestra querida moderadora @Kattycrochet 🥰
This little amigurumi measures 11 cm without the coat and 12.5 with it, but the joy I feel at having made this project is so great, these days I am without connection at home and only sometimes I go to a neighbor's house to connect to be able to publish in Hive, this has added a lot of stress but I have always said that my threads and needles save me from the worst circumstances, because as a therapy it helps a lot to concentrate and also to forget for a while about all those domestic problems that are accumulating, they I wish you a good week and I also remind you that you still have time to participate in the Halloween Challenge: Masks made with needles, where you will be participating for 15 Hive, courtesy of me and our dear moderator @Kattycrochet 🥰
