Step by step Pattern Make the body: Start by crocheting a magic ring in black yarn. Crochet 6 single crochets (sc) into the ring. Increase by crocheting 2 sc in each sc around. You should now have 12 sc. Continue crocheting in rounds, increasing by 6 sc evenly around each round. Crochet until the body piece is as wide as you want the bat to be. Stop increasing and continue crocheting in rounds around until the piece is as long as you want the bat's body to be. Fasten off and leave a long tail for sewing.
