October opens the crochet project season: the evenings get longer, the throws come out and Halloween arrives at the end of the month. Here are the site’s charts to start now, all free and designed for tapestry crochet in single crochet.
For Halloween
The carved pumpkin takes an evening and makes a coaster or a garland. The black and white pirate flag completes a costume.
For autumn
The maple leaf and the woodland mushroom join up as a throw border or a seasonal cushion. In aran wool with a 5 mm hook, each square grows quickly.
To get ahead on Christmas
The star-topped tree repeats easily for a garland. Starting in October leaves time to make a dozen before December.
Each pattern gives the chart, the colour list with stitch counts per colour, and the recommended yarn and hook.
