Crochet For Halloween
Count me in the camp that thinks Halloween is such a fun holiday. I mean what other holiday can you dress up and get free candy? And maybe the best part of is that crocheting for spooky season can be so much fun!
There are so many ways to infuse a bit of spooky fun into your life for Halloween:
Halloween Decorations
Maybe you just want some spooky home decor or to crochet Halloween accessories to add a little bit of whimsy around your home. Be sure to scroll down to see our great Halloween decorations for your living room or office.
Crochet Treat Bags
Possibly the most important thing you need for your Halloween celebrations is a great trick-or-treat bag. We’ve got you covered with some cuties in our collection!
Halloween Amigurumi
Halloween amigurumi patterns might be my absolute favorite and I am so happy to live in a world where it is completely socially acceptable to have these little guys in your life no matter what your age. Amigurumi patterns can run the gamut from stuffed black cats and little vampires to crochet pumpkin patterns and stuffed spooky decorations. I love them all!
Halloween Cup Cozies
I love the subtle ‘celebrate Halloween’ that comes with a seasonal cup cozy. Fun and fast, this is an easy project that also makes a great gift.
Halloween Costumes
Halloween costumes are just way too fun and there’s something for everyone. Maybe you have little ones in your life who just want to go trick-or-treating and you need the perfect pattern. I’m also a fan of adult costumes for a Halloween party. Or if you’re not feeling all Halloween like but your workplace encourages the fun, a subtle little holiday pattern like a crochet pumpkin hat might be perfect.
Supplies Needed
Fun Halloween crochet patterns require just a few simple things to make:
Crochet Hooks
Every fun crochet project needs the perfect crochet hook. These are my absolute favorite crochet hooks I recommend to everyone! I also have an ultimate guide to Crochet Hooks post if you want to dive in deep on this essential crochet tool.
Yarn Colors
Of course yarn is an essential, but yarn colors for Halloween can be so much fun because they often clash in a good way. Favorites are black, green and orange. Raiding your scrap pile is a great way to use up scraps and enjoy a fun Halloween project
Other Items (Optional)
A yarn needle and scissors are a must for every project and if you’re making amigurumi, a stitch marker is essential for keeping track of rows.
Special Note For Small Children
If you’re making a child size crochet project, know that safety eyes can be a hazard for child. Be sure to instead embroider eyes for baby amigurumi crochet projects. Your adorable crochet monster or cute creatures will look just as beautiful and you’ll feel better about giving your crochet project to the littlest ones on your gift list.
Basic Stitches To Know
Most of these patterns use a variety of basic crochet stitches, so make sure that you know how to work a chain stitch, single crochet stitch, half double crochet, double crochet stitch, and slip stitch (sl st). If you’re still perfecting your crochet craft, these Halloween crochet patterns will still be fun pieces to try while working on your crochet technique.

Mummy Bag Trick or Treat Bag
Mummy, Mummy, Mummy, must be funny, in a rich Pharaoh’s world. Alright, maybe I listen to too much ABBA. Either way, this mummy trick-or-treat bag is one of my favorite Halloween patterns. Whether you need the perfect candy bowl or a lovely basket for your trick-or-treater, this crochet project will be perfect for you! If you're looking to replace the safety eye in this pattern, working 6 single crochet in a magic ring will create a similar look in this adorable crochet mummy.
Crochet Halloween Bag
This cute little bundle includes a spooky skeleton, a jack-o-lantern, Frankenstein’s Monster, and a witch! I really love that these patterns feature drawstrings as it makes candy holding much easier. It’s also a perfect bold accessory all Halloween season long.
Pumpkin Bag
Does anything scream Halloween as much as a little pumpkin treat bag? This also could make a cute Halloween decoration in your home stocked with little candies! If you’re just starting to crochet, this pattern is considered to be relatively easy. Armed with basic crochet stitch knowledge, you should be good to go! It's also a great way to work on your crochet skills before tackling bigger projects this fall. Crochet cute pumpkins for all, I say!
Crochet Witch ~ Sami
If you're a fan of my collection of mini crochet dolls, this amigurumi crochet project is a must. After all, a crochet witch might just be a staple Halloween pattern. So of course I had to include my Crochet Witch amigurumi free pattern! I mean, just look at the little braids! I still just love how cute this pattern turned out. This is a great scrap yarn crochet project too!
Amigurumi Sam
Want a spooky decoration or just a spooky amigurumi pattern? This Sam pattern is perfect for all your scarecrow needs. Even though this pattern uses buttons instead of safety eyes, it is still best to crochet eyes if you're giving to a young child. I love that this pattern uses predominantly single crochet which make this a perfect project for those with an adventurous beginner skill level.
Halloween Crochet Gnomes
This super cute gnome really takes my breath away! I love that there’s a crochet witch hat, a cauldron crochet pattern, a crochet broom, and an amigurumi spider crochet pattern all wrapped up in one gnome pattern bundle. I personally think the ooze coming out over the cauldron is a lovely touch as well.
Crochet Bat Pattern
This amigurumi bat pattern is just so precious! I love the flexibility of the wings that allows all kinds of positioning possibilities! On the crochet technique front, this project looks like it uses basic stitches like single crochet, chain stitch and half double crochet, but it requires a higher skill level to complete so be mindful of that. This darling bat is worth every bit of your effort. So, so cute!
Big Skulls Mosaic Crochet Pattern
If you’ve been wanting to try a crochet skull pattern, this Big Skulls Mosaic Pattern is super cute! This skull crochet pattern pattern also includes a chart that will help you create throw blankets, placemats, rugs, and clothes in addition to the pillow pattern. If you're looking to work on your intarsia crochet technique this is a great pattern for practice and it looks like it uses either a half double crochet or double crochet stitch along with a surface chain stitch, Definately a fun one to try!
Crochet Candy Corn
Delightfully delicious, this free candy corn crochet pattern on my blog is the perfect little thing to tuck.. well everywhere in your home or office. So, so fun! This pattern is a great introduction to learn anigurumi crochet techniqes since it uses single crochet stitches. It truly is a pattern for any skill level.

Honestly, you could leave it out all of October as a fun decoration. If you know how to single crochet and make basic crochet stitches, you'll be all set to tackle this fun pattern!
Trick or Treat Kitten Coffee Cup Cozy
There are three super cute options when it comes to this Halloween cozy pattern. The crochet witch really holds a place in my heart, but the candy corn and Frankenstein options are also very adorable. I also really love that they’re all cat themed and not just the 'traditional' black cats vibe. So fun!
Little Pumpkin Cup Cozy
I absolutely love the color combination of the purple yarn for the background and the orange yarn for the pumpkins. This super cute little pumpkin cup cozy is so adorable. Honestly, you can’t have enough cozies in your home or office!

Sometimes, you really just want to step out of the box with your Halloween costume, but it's even better when you get to make it yourself! If you need a costume idea this pumpkin mask is the perfect level of spooky. It's also a way to crochet something a bit smaller as opposed to a full body costume for the holiday.
Baby Pumpkin Costume
This is such a cute crochet pumpkin pattern for little ones. Isn't it just darling? Honestly, dressing your pumpkin as a pumpkin for their first Halloween is just way too cute!
Feather Wing Crochet Shawl
This looks like it would be such a fun project! The Feather Wing Crochet Shawl by Crafty Intentions is the perfect winged costume accessory, especially if you’re looking for something light and comfortable. It is a bit more adventurous and time consuming, but well worth the effort.
