Halloween crochet projects from Paintbox Yarns

The main body of each Halloween critter is worked in a continuous piece in the round without joining, while all the fang-tastic detail is sewed on at the end! A fab project for intermediate crocheters or confident beginners looking for a step up.

From terrifyingly cute t-rex Bernard the Dinosaur, with his spiky tail and striped sweater, to irresistibly squidgy ghost Boo, with her fancy hat and frill, each toy is crammed with bewitching detail that kids and grownups will love all year round!

Oscar the Bat is so huggable, with his big round ears and tiny fangs, you’ll want to make a whole cauldron! Or curl up with Pips the Pumpkin, the squishiest squash on the patch! Have you ever seen a cuter gourd with his sweet leaf curl, stork arms and legs?
