9 Halloween Costumes That I Crocheted For My Kids

539

ADVERTISEMENT

Hi, I am Stephanie Pokorny of Crochetverse!

Our family is absolutely obsessed with all things Halloween, and so each year I freehand crochet full-body Halloween costumes, with no actual crochet patterns, for my children. Sometimes these unique costumes are from classic 80s movies, other times from whatever movie or toy is popular at the time.

Once they choose their Halloween costume ideas, I begin on bringing them to life. They love to follow along with my progress, and each day they ask, “Is it done yet?”

We live in a cold climate, so the warmth from the crochet is always a plus as we go Trick or Treating. Each of the costumes for kids takes between 25-40 hours, and I tend to work on them over the course of about two weeks. I have been crocheting since I was 16. I was taught by my Grandma, and these creative costumes are my passion.

My mother made my costumes for me as a child, and I remember being beyond excited to wear them. It brings me such joy to be able to do the same for my children!

I hope you enjoy my DIY Halloween costumes!

    Wow, this is amazing. I love it. And the kids look very cute in their costumes. And knowing how much time and work it takes to crochet a shawl, this take real dedication and planing.

    The nice thing about being born on Halloween is that you are already wearing a costume 24/7. LOL!

    Personally, I crochet way faster than I knit, but I can hardly knit a wash cloth whereas I can crochet just about anything. She says in the article they take about 25-40 hours over about 2 weeks.
