Free Halloween Knitting Patterns
1. Halloween Wreath

Nicola Valiji created this intermediate-level Halloween Showstopper. A sweet little witch is sitting with a pumpkin and her black customary cat. Accompanying her are the bandaged mummy and spooky spiders. Added stars in this pattern are bloodshot eyeballs and skulls.
2. Witches Hat Pattern for Halloween

A 2.5-inch-tall hat could be used as a hanging ornament in the Halloween décor or as a party invitation with details attached to a piece of card by a string. You can also make it bigger by doubling this Linda Dawkins 15-minute pattern.
3. Gus & Augustus GHOSTS

A pair of spooky knits by Trixie Zynch will brighten up your Halloween tabletop, mantle, or workplace. You can also mix this pair with a group of ghosts or collaborate with pumpkins, gourds, and pine cones for a complete holiday decoration.
4. Arachnophobia Spider

A creepy Halloween Spider by Revati Poole only comes out to play with your kids during this time of year. The head and body of this arachnid are an easy knit, but its eight legs are a bit more time-consuming and fiddly, with four eyes to make them look cute.
5. Spooky Pumpkin Mitts

These fingerless mitts by Cat in a Sweater are knitted bottom-up, and the construction is pretty straightforward. A fundamental skill of stranded colorwork is required to knit these mittens.
6. Russet the pumpkin

Phoeny Russet’s easy and quick pattern is a fun and friendly friend, but with dangly legs, adding the twist of Halloween. It can accompany a swing in an upright position. He is knitted flat on size 3 mm needles using small amounts of DK or equivalent Yarn.
7. Broomstick Bookmark

A bookmark for Harry Potter Fans, created by Kristina Gill, is a great, quick knit and makes a lovely gift. It could also serve as Halloween décor for witches by using worsted-weight yarn.
8. Cat Halloween knitting pattern

Amanda Berry designed a knitted stuffed black cat toy, or you can also turn it into a key ring. Fold the body in half and sew the cast-off edge tog; this seam runs along the top of the head. Insert eyes and sew the side edges of the tog. Sew across the top corners to make ears.
9. Pumpkin Cozy

Carve your Halloween pumpkin into a jack-o’-lantern too early, but by knitting, you can keep it festive and fresh. This Becky Stem pattern fits an 11-inch pumpkin approximately, but could be easily customized.
10. How to Make Knit Monster Popsicle Holders

The easy, adorable treat holders created by Blackstone Designs can be customized with sewn-on ears, googly eyes, and felt. These holders will keep the little ones cool during the summer, without freezing their tiny fingers. It will also be great for pool parties or summer birthday party favors.
11. BATCAPE!

This knitted cape with a zigzag pattern is published on the Universal Yarn Website. You need to pair the emulating bat wings with your vampire fangs, and you are Halloween-ready. It will become a gorgeous shawl for the rest of the year.
12. Frankenstein

Tina Hellon designed a friendly monster softie toy, perfect for decoration, made with worsted-weight yarn using a US 5-3.75 mm needle size. This would make a great Halloween gift.
