    Minecraft Crochet Pattern: Ghast – Floating In With A Wail And A Howl, Watch Out For Any Fireballs! 

    Following on from my creeper and squid patterns I next decided to make a pattern for a ghast.

    Minecraft Crochet Pattern: Squid – Speedily Swimming To The water!

    The next Minecraft pattern I decided to make was for a squid. This pattern basically consists of just a rectangle and 8 legs so hasn’t got too much to it and doesn’t take too long to make as a result. I am really happy with how it came out, I think it was the eye…
