Yes! Another skull! And this time its super easy, worked in the round, and has 3 different ways you can enjoy the pattern:

• Applique
• Granny Rectangle Motif
• Sugar Skull Elements to add

This pattern is USA American design for anyone who has basic crochet skills. (Not for beginners though, sorry) It uses sc, hdc, dc, tr, & ch stitches. The skull is a simple 3 rounds to make and you can use it as an applique. Add a few more granny style rounds and you have a rectangle motif you can use to make an afghan or other things. (Note… it’s NOT a square… it’s a rectangle) Then, if you like sugar skulls, you can crochet the elements & follow the instructions for making a cute sugar skull.

You can use ANY yarn, thread or whatever you crochet with… and any crochet hook that you want. Gauge is up to you too. The photos shown are worsted weight with a 4.5mm hook and a 5.25 hook. The size of your work will depend on what hook & weight of yarn you use.

This is a crochet pattern for digital download. It is in a PDF format made for Adobe Acrobat readers & other PDF readers. You may need to update your Adobe reader if you have trouble opening the file. The pattern is copyrighted and not legal to distribute or share with others. You may print a copy for your own use only. It was created to print on American standard 8.5X11 paper & may not print well on other paper sizes.

NOTE: The name of the design is Skull Nouveau but a lot of people don’t understand that just means New Skull and they think it’s not in English or that it’s translated from French… so I’ve changed the title on the page to make it easier to understand.

I’m an American designer writing in USA English and USA crochet terms.
