This pattern is available from yarnsea.com for €2.99.

This spooky Halloween pattern is perfect for all the fall vibes! There is a chart included for the colour work and also a more thorough step by step video guide too if you should need it.

I would say this knitting pattern is suitable for advanced beginners / intermediate knitters. You just need to know how to cast on, bind off, knit stitch, purl stitch, how to seam, knit 2 together, purl 2 together, how to pick up stitches and work with 2 different colours.

The sizes available are XS - S, S - M, M - L, L - XL, which are suitable for busts 30 - 46 inches.

There are photos throughout the pattern to help you.

You will need:

  • approx. 1880 - 3080 yards DK weight yarn in black / main colour (more details included in pattern).
