Spooky knits for Halloween have never been creepier!
Make your own custom Halloween costumes with one of these free knitting patterns.
With Halloween around the corner, there is still time to make something spooky to wear.
Handmade Halloween Costumes
Do you like to plan your Halloween costumes months in advance? or are you a last-minute kinda person?
Whatever you want to dress up as this post can give you a few ideas – from Freddy Kruger (the knitted sweater) to a cat with some black cat ears.
Making unusual Halloween costumes will get you noticed at any parties you go to this season.
Don’t pick something you know that everyone else is going to wear, but make something that shows off your maker skills as well as your individuality!

Knits for Halloween and fall
If you are a knitter and you love Halloween, why not make your own costume or something a little witchy related to wear in the fall?
While you can always buy at stores everything you need, making a unique item on your own in Halloween colors is definitely more fun.
You can also bring your personal fashion sense in, to make something original and it can be as spooky as you like.
