I have three sons at home, and they have been nature enthusiasts since they were little, so we spend a lot of time in nature, well, when there's some time to spare. :D In the evenings, they enjoy watching bats and stars. And I finally took the time to crochet a bat according to their wishes. And that's how the BAT ECHO was created. The youngest son is thrilled. He says it has everything he wished for. Its eyes and teeth glow in the dark, and it can even hang upside down.

And because it wouldn't be me if I didn't write PATTERN for it, YOU CAN CROCHET YOUR OWN Echo!

I would be very happy if you crochet one according to the instructions and maybe give it to a little nature lover or use it to decorate your cottage or a Halloween party.

• Chain stitches, single crochet stitches, double crochet stitches, slip stitches,
• Magic ring, crocheting in spiral rounds, increases, decreases,
