Crochet Patterns for September and October
Crocheting is a wonderful hobby that allows us to create beautiful and unique items. In the month of September, I worked on several crochet patterns that I am excited to share with you. These patterns range from adorable rattles to charming pillows. So, let's dive in and explore the crochet patterns I completed in September!
1. Cow Rattle
The first pattern I want to introduce is the adorable cow rattle. This pattern, created by Crochet Feelings Toys, is available on Etsy. Despite being a bit more work than expected, the end result is absolutely worth it. The cow rattle is not only cute but also loved by everyone who sees it. So, if you're looking for a fun and rewarding crochet project, I highly recommend giving this pattern a try.
2. Heart Pillow
Next on the list is the cute heart pillow. This free pattern, available on Pinterest and designed by Hooked by Janet, turned out to be a quick and enjoyable project. The best part about this pattern is its versatility. You can switch colors on both sides, creating a unique and personalized pillow. If you're in the mood for trying something new and adding a touch of charm to your home decor, this heart pillow pattern is a must-try.
3. Bunny Rattle
Moving on, we have another delightful rattle pattern. Although there is no direct pattern for this particular bunny rattle, I used the head and ears from a free Pinterest pattern by Christy Tulis. For the crochet part around the circle, I used the first rattle pattern mentioned earlier. The final touch was a cute free bow I found to add a touch of charm to the bunny. The result? A super cute and loved bunny rattle that everyone adores.
4. Unicorn
Now, let's talk about everyone's favorite mystical creature – the unicorn. I couldn't resist making this adorable unicorn using a free pattern I found on Pinterest by The Nicole Chase. To give it a little twist, I doubled the amount of hair strands from what the pattern called for. The extra twirly hair adds a touch of whimsy and uniqueness to the unicorn. If you're in the mood to crochet a cute unicorn, I highly recommend checking out this free pattern.
Moving on to the crochet patterns for October:
5. Sunflower Turtle
The first pattern for October is the sunflower turtle. I had been wanting to make this adorable little creature for months, and finally, I got around to it. The pattern, available on Etsy by Happy Turtle Crochet, is a delightful project that combines the charm of a turtle with the beauty of a sunflower. If you're looking for a unique and eye-catching crochet creation, this pattern is a must-try.
6. Ghosts
As Halloween approaches, it's time to get in the spirit with some spooky crochet patterns. The cute little ghosts, available as a free pattern on Pinterest by Vincent at Not Bad Amy, are perfect for adding a touch of Halloween to your home. These ghosts are quick to make, making them great sellers at a lower price point. If you're looking to add some Halloween-themed items to your craft fair inventory, give these adorable ghosts a try.
7. Bat
Next, let's explore the world of bats with a crochet pattern that turned out incredibly cute. This Etsy pattern, created by qzy ya, features a bat with wings that pop out, making it even more delightful. Although I did struggle with aligning the wings due to the thickness of the yarn used, I am confident that using smaller yarn will make the process much easier. So, if you're on the hunt for a fantastic bat pattern for Halloween, don't miss out on this one.
8. Strawberry Keychains
Continuing with the October theme, let's add a fruity twist with some strawberry keychains. These keychains were a hit at my last market, selling out quickly. The pattern, available for free on Pinterest by Crafty Marie, is incredibly easy and quick to make. If you want to keep up with the demand for these cute and charming keychains, give this pattern a try.
9. Penguins
As we approach the colder months, it's time to welcome some adorable penguins into our crochet projects. These little penguins turned out incredibly cute, and I have a feeling they will be great sellers. The pattern, available on Etsy by Meline Mayco, is easy and quick, allowing you to create a bunch of these charming creatures. Whether you want to add them to your craft fair inventory or simply make them as gifts, this penguin pattern is a must-try.
10. Pig
Finally, we have the most recent project – a cute pig. With adorable legs and a twirly tail, this pig turned out larger than expected. Although it takes a bit more time and effort, the end result is absolutely worth it. This Etsy pattern, crafted by an unknown maker (link included), is a great way to add a touch of cuteness to your crochet collection. Whether you make it for yourself or as a gift, this pig will surely bring a smile to anyone's face.
