A special Halloween BT21 collection was recently released for Halloween. They dressed the BT21 characters in costumes, such as, mummies, zombies, vampires, etc. I ran a poll on my Twitter and asked you all which character I should crochet and Shooky won. Shooky is dressed up as a vampire so I just changed his colors and crocheted a set of batwings and horns.
