Crochet Halloween squares to make a blanket, block or anything else you can imagine! These squares can be made with all SC stitches or with the cross stitch on crochet method. Keep reading for the free crochet pattern.
My daughter has SO MUCH fun with these blocks. Sometimes she talks about the letters and animals, sometimes she snuggles them, sometimes she throws them, and sometimes she covers herself in them. Now she has a crochet Halloween block to add to the mix!
Not a fan of cross-stitch or don't want to learn how to do it (I DO have a quick video tutorial and it is really easy!)? That's totally fine! You can use these grids however you want. Tapestry crochet, C2C (corner to corner), bobble stitch, etc. In addition to blocks, these could be used to make blankets, pillows, or even a Trick or Treat bag like I made HERE for big kids and HERE for toddlers.
