Crochet Patterns – Zombies

October 1, 2014 by jd wolfe

cro zombie 1 0914

You’ve heard of Zombie debt (ouch!) and Zombie Apocalypse, no doubt.  There are many Zombie references in pop culture these days.  I mean, when you can combine Jane Austen and Zombie in the same sentence, a true phenomenon is occurring.  But, if there’s a time of year for Zombie’s, this would be it!  You’ve still got a couple weeks to get your Halloween crochet done.  I’m sure you need a treat bag (make it full of treats for me, please).  Everyone does – even those tots who have no idea what a Zombie is.  Why not crochet a Zombie treat bag and steal the evening?  See link to the free pattern below.

Could you wear this hat while reading Jane Austen?  Surely, your love of Zombies would be confirmed for all to see.  I think this Zombie needs an orthodontist – and maybe an eye doctor too.  Or, maybe he wouldn’t be a Zombie if we tried to fix his Zombie-ness.  But, this is another project you could get on and off your crochet hook in an evening or two.  This brings up a problem.  If you show it to anyone before Halloween, you’ll surely be asked to make many more of them for the other Zombie-lovers in your life.  My advice?  Keep it under cover until the night you want to wear it for the first time.  Another free pattern – see link below.

With your cool Zombie treat bag and even cooler Zombie cap, I think you need a Zombie scarf.  But, I just couldn’t find one online anywhere to share with you.  However, I did see this very cool Zombie can cozee.  It got me thinking.  Make a scarf, any scarf you like, and use the instructions from this pattern to create a Zombie theme for each end of your scarf.  This is another item that will be in high demand by your friends, so keep it outta sight til you want to share it.

With these three fashion forward Zombie-fied patterns, you’re sure to get the attention you deserve – and who doesnt’ deserve atterntion for er/his crochet coolness?  Just go for it.  You’ll be the coolest Zombie ever!

Lightweight Lacy Crochet Tee Pattern That’s Perfect for Layering

Some crochet garments look beautiful on the hanger but feel awkward to wear. This Lacy Crochet Tee from Lana Grossa is not one of those pieces. It’s light, breathable, and very much designed to be worn — the kind of handmade top that slips easily into your everyday wardrobe without feeling “too precious.”

What immediately stands out is the openness of the stitch pattern. It has that airy, lacy feel that works so well for warmer weather or for layering over a tank or dress. This isn’t a heavy, structured garment; it’s soft and fluid, with just enough texture to make it interesting while still letting the yarn shine.

From a making point of view, this tee is a really enjoyable project if you like crochet that feels calm and rhythmic. The lace pattern keeps your hands engaged without constant counting or frustration, which makes it perfect for evening crochet or quiet weekend sessions. It’s also very satisfying watching the fabric grow — those lacy stitches really show progress quickly.

Skill-wise, this one is best suited to confident beginners moving into intermediate crochet. You don’t need advanced shaping skills, but being comfortable with stitch patterns and keeping even tension will make the process much more enjoyable. If you’ve been wanting to dip your toe into wearable crochet without tackling a full sweater, this is a great place to start.

What I really appreciate about this pattern is how versatile it is. Change the colour and fibre and it can feel casual and beachy or clean and modern. It’s the kind of tee you’ll reach for again and again, especially when you want something handmade that still feels light and effortless.

If you enjoy crochet garments that are wearable, practical, and quietly stylish, this lacy tee is a lovely pattern to have in your collection.
