We know how much pressure you’re in to dress your house up to the nines this season. So we made sure to include easy Halloween crochet ideas that are quick to stich up but add a ton of spice to your space. Let’s get started!
Materials for this List of Crochet Halloween Decorations
Excited to start on these creepy cuties? Hold on a bit. Check out this list of tools and materials that you might need for the projects ahead:
- Crochet hooks – Make sure to have plenty of crochet hooks on hand! You can find the hook sizes you need listed in the ‘materials’ section of each crochet pattern in this round-up!
Pro tip: Wood and plastic hooks are great for slippery yarns and metal hooks are perfect for “sticky” yarns like acrylic! - Yarn – Make sure to check the pattern to see what yarn weight to use. Each pattern should list a recommended brand or weight in the “suggested yarn” section of the crochet pattern you’re following! We always recommend that you match the fiber type you’re using with the one used to make the pattern!
- Scissors – A pair of scissors is another important tool that you will use for all of your crochet projects. You’ll need them to cut the yarn and trim any leftover yarn tails when you’re done!
- Stitch markers – You might need stitch markers to keep track of where you are if you’re following a stitch pattern. We recommend “removable” or “locking” style stitch markers for crochet projects. If you don’t have stitch markers, you can use a strand of scrap yarn—preferably in a different color so it’s easy to see.
- Yarn/darning needle – You will need a yarn needle or darning needle to sew in the loose ends.
- Crochet Halloween patterns – Don’t forget to grab your favorite patterns for crochet Halloween decorations from this list!
- Googly eyes – You’ll find a couple of Halloween amigurumi patterns in this list. So make sure to have a few pairs of beady eyes to use!
