Halloween inspired cushion covers you have to crochet

October 18, 2022

It's the spooky season and I'm feeling inspired by all of the Halloween projects I could be getting on with.

Of course, I'm actually painfully busy and might not get to do any of them but there's no reason why we can't all have a look together, is there? Each one of these caught my eye for different reasons. Trust me, there were a lot more that I could have shared with you but these are the top 5!

Each of these patterns uses single crochet (UK double) and is a perfect opportunity to play around with crochet colourwork. Let me know which is your favourite!

1. Vampire bat sofa cushion

Halloween cushion cover. Vampire bat cushion

This one is fangtastig (sorry) as the black motifs are attached after making the straightforward square shape of the cushion. This pattern is by Angelika Liusinska and is available on Lovecrafts.

2. Pillow skull I see you

This pattern is as scary as it is clever. The mouth of the skull is brilliant and looks to be made using triple trebles (double treble). Get your black and white yarn out and have a go at crochet colourwork.

This pattern is by Marika Uustare and is available here.

3. Cat Pillow crochet pattern

If you'd rather keep it cute this Halloween here's a gorgeous cat pillow. Look at that nose!

The pattern is from Annemarie Benthem and is available on Lovecrafts.

4. Pumpkin cushion cover

Love anything that screams "spooky pumpkin"? This cushion cover may be just what you need in your life this October. The pattern is by Loops and Crosses and is available here.
