Halloween Cat Amigurumi

Let’s be honest – cats are basically Halloween mascots all year round with their mysterious vibes and spooky stares! Black cats crossing your path, orange tabbies judging your crochet technique; these feline friends are absolutely essential for any Halloween collection~

Hello Kitty Halloween Cat

Iconic – seriously, this pattern is just so cool. I love Hello Kitty, so obviously this kind of pattern definitely talks to me! I think the details on this one are everything.The channel has other options for Halloween that are also super cute (and some of them I attached in this collection as well), so definitely I’d suggest to check AmiSaigon out if you’re looking for cute patterns. I just love their creativity.

If you want PDF versions of the patterns from this creator, you’ll have to check their shop (and they’re not free, but not expensive either!)

the pattern – super well explained with the written instructions at the bottom of the screen.

Chubby Halloween Cats

I’ve seen this sort of little Halloween cats a lot around Pinterest and YouTube, but these are probably my favorites. Chubby and cute! They make me think of Pusheen, if you know you know~ (especially the one on the far right, obviously hihi)

Anyway, I think they would be making perfect keychains for Halloween, or little decorations to hang around the room.

Halloween Cat with Accessories

A cute Halloween cat with little accessories! In the first video, we learn how to make the little cat. Then, in the second part, we can make the accessories to go with it, such as a little hat, cauldron, pumpkin, etc. Super cute, and the tutorial is thorough and really well explained. I think you can tackle this even if you’re a beginner, because of the nice rhythm and explanations.

Cat-o-Lantern (Kitty in a Pumpkin)

A little kitty in a pumpkin. Cat-o-lantern! The creator named him Jack, for he is the Pumpkin King. It’s such a cute name ;; Another super cute creation to make for Halloween season this year! It’s not a super easy one, but oh boy is it cute. I love the way the video is structured and shows the pattern in block rather than row per row.

The pattern – easy to follow, instructions always on screen!

Hello Kitty Pumpkin

Who would think we needed a super cute Hello Kitty pumpkin? Well- after seeing this pattern, I definitely do believe I needed it lol. My crochet skills basically suck, but I keep trying ahahah and I think this one might be one of my next tries for Halloween! So cute and precious ♥

The pattern – as always on AmiSaigon’s channel: super clear and easy to follow!

Ghost

Ghosts are probably the most classic Halloween creature ever, and honestly, they’re just so fun to make because they’re basically the perfect beginner amigurumi shape. Round body, flowing edges – what’s not to love about these adorable spooky spirits?

Boo the Ghost

This one’s called Boo! Quite a fitting name for such a cute little Ghost, isn’t it? Actually, a lot of ghost crochet patterns seem to be called Boo; but well… it’s cute nonetheless! If you require a super thorough pattern that guides you step by step with pictures, this pattern won’t be the one to help you – it’s a pattern on which you can find only the start, rows, and end written down.

Cute Ghost with Witch Hat

A tiny ghost with a witch hat? Check! I like this pattern because not only can you have the free instructions written down on the creator’s blog, but you can also check out their video if you need more explanations and if you’re a visual learner (like me lol)

Flat Ghost with Witch Hat

This one is a Japanese/English YouTube video pattern of a little ghost with a witch hat, again! But it’s quite different from the previous one – it’s a flat version! I suggest you check it out as well. It’s always nice to see how two creators make similar pieces in my opinion!

Halloween Puppy Ghost

Halloween puppy? If you like dogs and Halloween, this is definitely a pattern you’ll wanna check out. They’re just TOO CUTE. Seriously lol I’m dying. I wouldn’t call them easy to make though, so you might wanna try something easier if you’re a complete beginner. 🙂

No-Sew Ghost

Another little ghost, no sew for this one! This video pattern is specifically nice in my opinion, I love the fact that the pattern stays on the screen in a big font as you go, and it was just made super easy to follow and understand. Plus, it’s super cute, which is obviously VERY important. ♥

The creator also offers the full crochet pattern on their website, Etsy, and Ravelry Stores! It includes detailed instructions to create 18 cute ghost plushies. The pattern includes a list of all the colors they use, detailed step by step photos of the hard parts and more. (for a fee!)

Halloween Cupcake Ghost

And the last one for the ghost patterns, a little cupcake with a ghost on it! The free version doesn’t have pictures for you to follow, and I believe beginners should try easier patterns first. This one is more of an intermediate level pattern.

Halloween Witches

Witches are like the ultimate Halloween icon, right? From pointy hats to magical broomsticks, there’s something so enchanting about creating your own little spell-casting buddies. Plus, who doesn’t want a cute witch friend to keep you company during those late-night crafting sessions?

Mini Witch Hat and Broomstick

Perfect little accessories for your Halloween amigurumi! Of course, the little duck definitely got me at first – but be aware: you won’t be crocheting the duck itself, just the Halloween accessories!

This adorable pattern gives you both a tiny witch hat and matching broomstick that are just the right size to accessorize any of your crochet dolls or plushies. The creator designed these as “minis” specifically to complement other Halloween projects, and honestly, they’re so cute. The hat features a lovely purple ribbon detail around the brim, and the broomstick has realistic bristles made with yarn fringe. The pattern includes step-by-step photos and even teaches you the surface slip stitch technique for the hat band – super useful if you’ve never tried it before!

Mini Evil Witch Amigurumi

This little green-skinned witch is absolutely iconic! Standing at just a bit more than 2 inches, she’s perfectly pocket-sized but packed with personality. I love how the creator gave her that cool “evil witch” look. But she’s still just too cute lol. She comes complete with a black pointed hat, flowing cloak, wild white hair, and even her own little broomstick. The pattern is super detailed with tons of step-by-step photos, and it’s available in multiple languages too. Even though she’s “evil,” she’s absolutely adorable and would make a perfect Halloween decoration or keychain!

the Halloween Witch Girl

Meet Whimsy – she’s not your typical scary witch! This pastel goth cutie rocks grey and pink colors instead of the traditional black and green, giving her a totally unique “kawaii meets Halloween” vibe. If you want to crochet this one, you’ll have to visit and check multiple patterns of the same creators, because this one is based off another base. Thankfully, it is free as well and linked in the pattern!

Whimsy comes with her own dress, collar, witch hat, and gorgeous braided hair. The free version gives you most of what you need, but if you want extra pictures and explanations, you’ll need the PDF version.

Little Witch with Magenta Hair

Another cute one, a little witch that looks slightly different than the Halloween version you’d expect! This charming little witch has the most gorgeous bright magenta hair. She’s such a fun twist on the traditional witch look – while she keeps the classic black dress and pointed hat, her vibrant pink/purple hair gives her a modern, playful personality. But you can just change the colors and give it another look if you wish.

The pattern is written in Spanish (from the blog Crochet y Amigurumis), but if you don’t speak Spanish, you can use the Google Translation!

Crooked Witch Hat

This witch’s hat from Sweet Lilliput is absolutely stunning! The hat has this gorgeous crooked, slouchy shape that gives it such authentic witchy vibes – you know, that perfectly imperfect look that makes it feel magical rather than stiff. What I love most is how it’s designed to work with multiple characters – you can make it for Twilight the Cat, Niblet the Pumpkin, Gwendolyn the Ghost… The pattern shows the hat in a beautiful purple color that really makes it pop.

The best part? It’s completely FREE and includes detailed instructions for achieving that perfect crooked witch hat shape. There’s also an optional embroidered hat band and buckle detail if you want to make it extra fancy!

Crow / Raven Crochet Pattern

These mysterious black birds are giving me all the Edgar Allan Poe vibes! Ravens and crows add such a dramatic, gothic touch to Halloween decor, and they’re honestly underrated in the cute factor department. Time to give these intelligent beauties the crochet love they deserve!

Cute Standing Raven

This is such a well-crafted raven! Standing at 7 inches tall, he’s got amazing detail and actually looks amazing in my opinion. The creator from “i crochet things” really outdid themselves with this revamped version – they specifically redesigned it to look more like a real raven, and it definitely shows! You can check the first version on their Ravelry as well, by the way. ♥

He’s got beautiful black and dark grey shading that gives him depth and dimension. The pattern is rated as medium difficulty, so you’ll want to have some amigurumi experience under your belt, but the results are absolutely worth it. He can even stand on his own if you stuff the legs well and find that perfect balance point!

Creeping Crow Plushie

Oh my goodness, this little crow is absolutely ADORABLE! Doesn’t it make you think of… some… other bird?

As soon as I saw its big eye, I immediately thought of Kpop Demon Hunter’s bird! (maybe I’m just brainwashed after seeing SO MUCH of this movie all over the internet) (…)

What I love most about this pattern is that it’s 100% single crochet, making it super beginner-friendly, and it only takes about an hour to complete. That means you could easily whip up a whole flock of these cuties! He’s got simple black construction with just a touch of white for contrast, and the pattern includes both a free version and a more detailed PDF. Sometimes the simplest patterns create the most charming results, and this little guy is proof of that!

Pumpkin Crochet Pattern

Is it even Halloween without pumpkins? I mean, come on – orange, round, and absolutely perfect for decorating! These gourd-eous patterns will have you creating the cutest pumpkin patch right in your living room, and unlike real pumpkins, these won’t rot after a week lol.

Stacked Pumpkin Centerpiece

This stunning stacked pumpkin centerpiece is absolutely GORGEOUS! The pattern creates three different sized pumpkins (large, medium, and small) that stack beautifully to create a 10.5-inch tall centerpiece. What I love most about this pattern is how realistic the pumpkins look – they’re made from basic rectangles that get gathered and sewn into perfect pumpkin shapes, and you can choose to either cinch them simply or segment them into those classic pumpkin sections (the photos show the segmented version and it’s stunning!).

The creator uses beautiful autumn colors – orange, cream, and gold – and finishes with gorgeous faux florals tucked between the pumpkins. The pattern includes both free instructions with tons of photos AND a video tutorial, plus you can grab a premium PDF if you want to print it out.

Halloween Pumpkin

This pattern from Yarn + Chai is absolutely perfect if you want something that can pull double duty! Rebecca designed it so you can make either a classic pumpkin (just leave off the face) or go full Halloween with the cutest jack-o’-lantern face. The pumpkin has incredibly realistic shaping thanks to her clever construction method and the use of crossed single crochet stitches that create beautiful vertical ridges. What really sets this pattern apart is the detailed color chart for the face – it shows you exactly where to place each black stitch to create those classic triangle eyes and zigzag smile. The finished pumpkin is about 6 inches wide and 5.25 inches tall, making it the perfect size for tabletop decoration. Plus, the pattern includes super detailed finishing instructions that show you how to create those gorgeous segmented pumpkin sections.

Pumpkin Trick-or-Treat Bag

How clever is this?! A trick-or-treat bag that actually looks like a pumpkin! This pattern from Petals to Picots creates the most adorable functional bag that measures about 7 inches high and 11 inches wide – perfect size for little hands to carry around the neighborhood.

The construction is so smart – you start from the top and work down, creating the perfect pumpkin shape with strategic increases and decreases. The pattern includes detailed instructions for the front post double crochet cables, and it even suggests adding a cardboard base to help the bag hold its shape when filled with treats. A perfect accessory for a Trick or Treat night!

Flat Pumpkin Face Applique

Okay this time we’re making a coaster! (kinda?) Perfect for when you want pumpkin decorations but don’t have time for a full 3D project, this little guy works up super quickly and can be used in so many ways. You can hang them as decorations, add them as appliqués to blankets or clothing, or even string them together to make a Halloween garland! I guess you could use them as coasters too?

The face is embroidered on with simple triangular eyes and a zigzag mouth – the instructions are so detailed that even embroidery beginners can nail this! Plus, the pattern includes optional blocking and stiffening tips if you want them to be extra sturdy for hanging decorations.

Little Pumpkin with Wizard Hat

This Yeezhee pattern is absolutely adorable and gives you two pumpkin options! You can make either a “little pumpkin” or go big with “The Great Pumpkin” complete with a wizard’s hat! Both pumpkins have the sweetest faces with simple embroidered features.

The little pumpkin is perfect for small decorations or adding to a candy bowl, while The Great Pumpkin with his wizard hat has major Halloween vibes that would look amazing as a centerpiece. The pattern includes super clear instructions for each part (body, stem, face features, and the wizard hat), and the photos show exactly what your finished pumpkins should look like. Plus, the creator uses the magic ring method and provides helpful links to stitch tutorials!

Functional Pumpkin Pots

Now THIS is clever – a functional pumpkin that actually works as a container! This pumpkin pot from Hooked on Patterns is perfect for holding Halloween treats, and it even comes with a removable lid that looks like a little pumpkin top with a green stalk. The construction is so smart – you make a base bowl first, then work the outer pumpkin shape on top and stuff between the layers to get that perfect 3D pumpkin look. The pattern includes detailed instructions for creating those realistic pumpkin grooves by threading yarn through specific points. So cute ♥

Pumpkin Cat

This is absolutely the cutest thing ever! This Pumpkin Cat pattern from @amegurema features an adorable white cat wearing an orange pumpkin hoodie – it’s like the perfect combination of cute and Halloween spooky! The pattern includes detailed instructions for making both the white cat head/body and the orange textured pumpkin hoodie that fits over it. The pattern breaks everything down into clear sections: hoodie, head, stem, and leaf, with step-by-step photos showing the assembly process. (even if it’s just an instagram pattern! This would be perfect for cat lovers who want to add a Halloween twist to their amigurumi collection! I could’ve added it to the “cat” section, but this is so pumpkin coded..

Jack Skellington

The Pumpkin King himself! If you’re a Nightmare Before Christmas fan like me, then you absolutely NEED some Jack Skellington patterns in your life. That iconic skull face and dapper style – he’s basically Halloween royalty, and these patterns will let you bring that Tim Burton magic right into your home.

Jack Skellington Amigurumi

This Jack Skellington pattern from @loopsandlovebugs is absolutely incredible! This is the creator’s first official pattern release and what a cute yet creepy one- this Jack is spot-on perfect with his iconic skull head, those signature big black eyes, and his creepy smile! The creator has included step-by-step photos showing the construction process, from making the individual pieces to the final assembly, plus clear embroidery instructions for the nose and mouth details. At about 12-15 inches tall (depending on your yarn choice), he’s the perfect size for display or gifting to any Nightmare Before Christmas fan!

Jack Skellington Keychain

This adorable little Jack Skellington keychain is the perfect quick afternoon project! The creator describes it as “very easy” and mentions you could easily sit down and make several keychains in one afternoon – perfect for Halloween gifts or adding to treat bags. It’s just a perfect little keyring! What I love about this pattern is how straightforward it is – just a basic sphere shape with increases and decreases, then you add the black felt eyes and embroider that signature Jack smile. It’s small enough to be a quick project but still detailed enough to be instantly recognizable as our beloved Pumpkin King. It’s a perfect beginner-friendly way to add some fun to Halloween season ♥

Jack Skellington Wreath

This Jack Skellington wreath is absolutely stunning and perfect for making a big Halloween statement! This pattern creates a dramatic black and white striped wreath base topped with Jack’s iconic skull head. The construction is so clever – you make a long striped strip by alternating black and white rows, then wrap it around a 12 or 14-inch foam floral ring. The pattern includes instructions for both sizes and even tells you exactly how many rows you’ll need (84 for 12-inch, 96 for 14-inch). Jack’s head is worked as a separate amigurumi piece and then sewn onto the wreath, complete with black felt teardrop eyes and embroidered nose and mouth details. It looks insanely cool in my opinion!

Jack Skull Face Bag

This skull face bag looks like the perfect Halloween treat bag! It’s a free Ravelry download and is described as “very easy and fun” – exactly what you want for a Halloween project. The pattern is available in both English and Spanish, it creates a simple but effective skull-faced bag that would be perfect for trick-or-treating or as a Halloween party favor.

Jack Skellington and Zero

This adorable pattern features both Jack Skellington AND his beloved ghost dog Zero! The pattern is worked in medium-weight cotton with a 2.5mm hook and includes tutorial guidance. It’s only available in Spanish (“Solo disponible en español”), but for those who can follow Spanish patterns or use translation tools, totally recommend it.

The fact that it includes both Jack and Zero makes it extra special – you get the whole duo together! It’s a free Ravelry download, so definitely worth checking out if you’re comfortable with Spanish patterns or want to try your hand at translating. Zero is such an underrated character, so it’s lovely to see him included alongside Jack in this pattern.

Cauldron Crochet Pattern

What witch doesn’t need a trusty cauldron for brewing up some Halloween magic? These patterns are perfect for creating little containers for treats, or just as decorative pieces that scream “Halloween vibes.”

Classic Mini Cauldron

This adorable little cauldron from Petals to Picots is the perfect size for both Halloween decor and holding treats for your sweeties! It’s functional enough to actually use as a small container while being decorative enough to enhance your Halloween display. It’s been around since 2013 and is still going strong, which tells you it’s a keeper pattern!

Bubbling Glow-in-the-Dark Cauldron

This “Bubbling Cauldron with Lid” from Moogly’s Tamara Kelly is absolutely MAGICAL – and I mean that literally because it glows in the dark! It’s quite big, too. The construction is really smart – the cauldron base is made with tripled black yarn to make it sturdy enough to stand up strong, while the lid uses glow-in-the-dark yarn with bold popcorn stitches to create that amazing bubbling-over effect.

The pattern includes both a free version on the blog and a premium PDF, and Tamara provides helpful tips like how to triple yarn from one skein. Definitely one to check out!

Potion Cauldron Cutie with Face

This “Potion Cauldron Cutie” from Virkadia is absolutely adorable and packed with personality! What really sets this cauldron apart is all the incredible details – it comes with a stirring spoon, realistic handles, and cute “bubbling” popcorn stitches on top that create the perfect potion-overflowing effect. The pattern offers two color variations (green or purple potion), but you can obviously change it to fit your personal taste! It’s part of their Halloween Cuties collection, so it coordinates beautifully with other spooky friends!

Skull Crochet Pattern

Skulls might seem a bit spooky, but in crochet form they’re surprisingly cute! There’s something so satisfying about creating these iconic Halloween symbols, and they make perfect edgy decorations that aren’t too scary for the little ones.

Video Tutorial Skull

This YouTube skull pattern provides visual step-by-step instructions that are perfect for anyone who prefers video tutorials over written patterns. YouTube tutorials are especially helpful for skull patterns since the shaping and proportions can be tricky to get right from written instructions alone. Kylie’s channel is known for clear, detailed tutorials that walk you through each step, making complex projects more manageable. If you’re a visual learner or want to see exactly how to create that perfect skull shape, this video tutorial is definitely worth checking out! – It’s not an easy project though (in my opinion) so be prepared!

Skull Tapestry Drawstring Bag

This super cool bag combines tapestry crochet with a skull motif to create something that’s both spooky and absolutely functional! The pattern uses a sophisticated tapestry crochet technique to create a detailed skull design that wraps around the entire bag. The creator provides instructions in both English and Spanish, and the pattern includes detailed explanations for reading the color chart and making the drawstring. This is definitely suitable for beginners who are familiar with tapestry crochet, and the step-by-step photos make the advanced techniques much more approachable. The result is both cute and spooky – exactly what you want for Halloween!

Aren’t bats just perfect creations for Halloween season? Let’s discover some of them! These adorable bat patterns range from tiny pocket pets to decorative appliques – all of them are super cute, and mostly small. But you can always make a pattern bigger by increasing rows for example, or choosing another yarn. So check them out ♥

Spooky Batty Bat

This adorable free pattern from Crafty Bunny Bun is perfect for creating your own little bat family! The creator even mentions “you know what is better than one bat? A family of bats ;)” and I do agree lol I mean, look at the picture! It looks like the perfect Halloween project to me! The pattern is completely free of course(yay!), and the designer has a thorough approach to sharing patterns. She mentions that if you enjoy her free patterns, you can support her by buying her “a ball of yarn or a cup of coffee,” but there’s no pressure at all.

Bat Pocket Pet

Now THIS is a cute bat! I love the details on this one. This free pattern creates a bat that’s 5.75 inches tall by 5.5 inches wide – so it’s the perfect size to actually be a pocket pet! It really sets the Halloween mood perfectly. It’s rated as intermediate difficulty, so it might be a good challenge if you’re ready to level up your crochet skills.

Bat Amigurumi

What I love about this pattern is that it’s available in both English and Spanish, making it accessible to more crocheters! This is a free pattern that uses size 6 super bulky yarn and creates a bat that’s about 5.5 inches tall. The fact that it uses bulky yarn means it’ll work up super quickly – perfect for those last-minute Halloween decorations or if you’re like me and tend to procrastinate on seasonal projects lol.

Cutie Pocket Bat

This little guy is part of a complete Halloween themed set that includes a Pocket Ghost, a Pumpkin and a Frankenstein monster doll – how cute is that?! At about 3.5 inches tall, it’s truly pocket-sized and would be perfect for little Halloween decorations around the house. There’s also a video tutorial available on YouTube to help with the majority of the pattern, which is super helpful if you’re a visual learner like me!

Free Chubby Baby Bat

Oh my god, this little chubby bat is absolutely ADORABLE! (i LOVE chubby creation, let’s be honest) Look at those tiny wings and that perfect round body – it’s giving me all the cute aggression vibes! Honestly, anything “chubby” just makes everything more precious. It’s the perfect size for a little Halloween buddy that you could carry around or give as a sweet handmade gift. The fact that it’s free makes it even better! This is definitely going on my “must make” list because who doesn’t need a chubby baby bat in their life? ♥

How to Crochet a Bat Applique – Beginner Tutorial

This beginner-friendly bat applique tutorial is absolutely perfect if you’re just starting your crochet journey! What I love about appliques is how versatile they are – you can hang them around the house, use as bunting or give away as treats which gives you so many decorating options for Halloween! The fact that it works with any yarn, any hook, and any color means you can totally customize it to your style. Want pastel Halloween bats? Go for it! Prefer classic black? Perfect! The tutorial uses a 2mm hook with sport weight yarn, so these will work up super quickly – ideal for when you need multiple decorations or last-minute Halloween treats. Plus, being US terminology makes it easy to follow for most crocheters!

Spider Amigurumi Pattern

Okay, I know spiders aren’t everyone’s favorite (and that’s why I put the spider section at the last position of this article lol), but hear me out – crochet spiders are actually super adorable and way less scary than the real thing! Plus, they’re perfect for hanging decorations, and you can make them in any color you want. Pink Halloween spider, anyone?

No-Sew Blushie Spiders

This “no-sew” amigurumi spider is absolutely perfect for Halloween lovers who want adorable spiders without all the sewing! Available as a free Ravelry download, this pattern creates the cutest “blushie spiders” (complete with pink embroidered cheeks – how sweet is that?!) in two different sizes. The regular size using worsted weight yarn gives you a 4-inch long by 5.5-inch wide spider, while the large version made with blanket yarn creates an impressive 8-inch by 12-inch spider. I’m not sure I would personally make it too big since I’m scared of spiders, but well. What I absolutely love about this pattern is the no-sew construction – the legs are worked directly into the body so you don’t have to attach them separately. ♥

Cute Rather Than Creepy Spider

Link: https://www.stitchbyfay.com/crochet-spider-pattern/

Okay okay – I think I can see where you can call a spider “cute”. This adorable spider is designed to be “cute rather than creepy” and honestly, mission accomplished! I think? This no-sew pattern creates a 4-inch wide spider (including legs) using super bulky yarn, which gives it a lovely fuzzy, plush texture. The creator specifically mentions she’s not a fan of real spiders, so she designed this to be fun and cute instead of scary. (thank you, really)

The pattern is completely beginner-friendly and works up super quickly – perfect for last-minute Halloween decorations or craft fair stock. You can customize it with different colors or even glow-in-the-dark yarn for extra Halloween fun. The free version is available on her blog, but there’s also a premium PDF with extra photos and easy-print pages if you prefer that format.

Actual Spider

Okay this starts looking too much like a spider for me – ugh. WHY DOES AN IMAGE MAKE ME SHIVER LIKE THIS? Anyway- The pattern is a free Ravelry download and emphasizes the importance of crocheting tightly enough so stuffing doesn’t show through. It’s been around since 2015 and has proven popular with crocheters who appreciate the flexibility to adapt it to their needs.

Large Spider with Details

Link: https://yeezhee.com/pages/halloween-spider-free-crochet-patterns

um… This one is literally so scary? well- for me anyway. The shape of this spider really looks too similar to a real big (gigantic) spider. The pattern uses black and fluorescent green yarn, giving it that classic Halloween color scheme with a modern twist. The fluorescent green details really make it pop! The creator includes helpful tips like using stitch markers to avoid mistakes and suggests using thicker yarn if you want a fluffier appearance. The pattern is written with clear abbreviations and includes links to helpful stitch tutorials. This spider is designed to be “easy and enjoyable” for all skill levels, and the fact that it includes separate claws and front teeth shows the attention to detail – this is definitely more realistic (and creepy).

Arnold the Multi-Eyed Spider

Link: https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/arnold-the-spider

Meet Arnold! Okay, the fact that is has a name makes it slightly less scary, but still. Arnold is made using 100% acrylic yarn with a 3mm hook, and what makes him special is his realistic proportions and multiple eyes – you’ll need one pair of 12mm safety eyes and two pairs of 8mm safety eyes to give him that authentic spider look. The pattern is a free Ravelry download and has been incredibly popular with nearly 4,200 projects completed! Arnold requires basic amigurumi skills and some assembly, but the results are so worth it. The creator provides a comprehensive materials list and clear abbreviations.

No-Sew Baby Spiders

It’s cute – but the body is way too big for me to feel comfortable around it ahaha ;;

What I love about this pattern though is that it’s designed to be “super quick and easy” with no sewing required, making it perfect for beginners or anyone who wants a fast project. The creator describes it as a no-sew pattern that works up incredibly quickly, and you can see from the size comparison in the photo that these are perfect little palm-sized spiders. They’d be ideal as car hangers, small gifts, or scattered around for Halloween decorations.

30-Minute No-Sew Spider Tutorial

This “Free NO SEW Crochet Spider Tutorial” is perfect for anyone who wants instant gratification!

The spider works perfectly as a car hanger, Halloween decoration, or quick gift, and since it’s completely self-contained with no assembly required, you literally just crochet, stuff, and you’re done.
