Not long now until Halloween is here, but there is still a little time left to make a few more Halloween themed things. Following on from my crochet Halloween ghost napkin holder and bunting, and crochet eyeball napkin holder is a pattern for a crochet bat napkin holder.

These would look great for a Halloween party decoration, and could be made in different colours or with shiny wool. You can even use these for little gifts and put sweets in instead of a napkin.
