53 Free Halloween Crochet Patterns

Posted on Last updated:

Store-bought Halloween decorations don’t always hit the mark. They’re often repetitive, flimsy, don’t last very long, and are also expensive; what’s worse, if my neighbors have the same Halloween decorations as me…

As I was brainstorming on how to get creative and unique Halloween decorations, I thought why not make my own? You can get started on your own Halloween crochet patterns with just a skein of yarn, a crochet hook, and some measurements!

Here are 50+ free Halloween crochet patterns for you to make this Halloween season. From decorative items to Halloween wearables that you won't find in stores!

Thinking about what you can crochet for Halloween?

I understand that creating your own crochet patterns can be difficult, especially if you don’t have a guide to help you. This Halloween, try one of these 50+ free Halloween crochet patterns.

This free Halloween crochet patterns list contains both quick Halloween crochet patterns and more difficult intricate projects. Find tons of adorable but spooky decorative items, scary Halloween wearables, and overall some unique pieces you won’t find in stores!

How to use these free Halloween crochet patterns?

Need some inspiration for how to put your crocheted items to use? They can be used in a variety of fun ways to make your Halloween party more memorable and unique. Here are some examples of how you can apply these patterns:

  • DIY Decorations:
    Many, if not all, of these crochet items, particularly amigurumi dolls, would make excellent Halloween party guests. They’d look great on your fireplace mantle, dining table, or any other flat surface that needs a little Halloween spice!
  • Costume Accessories:
    Smaller crochet patterns may not be visible on a mantle. They will, however, come in handy for adding a little something extra to your Halloween outfit. A small pumpkin or spider on your cape would be a nice finishing touch that shows you put thought into it!
  • Halloween treats alternative:
    If you’re a health-conscious parent who has never approved of children getting so many treats on Halloween night, this is a great option! Instead of handing out treats when the kids come knocking, these small cute little patterns would be just as welcome. You could also give these to children who are allergic to the treat you intend to distribute.
  • Thanksgiving, Christmas, and Birthday Gifts:
    These crochet patterns aren’t just for Halloween. You can definitely make them ahead of time and save them as gifts for other festive seasons or birthdays.
