Halloween Treat Goody Bags
Welcome to our delightful 11-page knitting pattern featuring charming designs for your very own bags! This pattern includes step-by-step instructions and photo references to guide you through creating three types of bags, each adorned with 6 different playful faces: Witch, Pumpkin, Skull, Cat, Frankenstein, and Mummy. Perfect for the Halloween season or year-round crafting, these bags are sure to bring a smile to anyone’s face!
Each bag measures approximately 5” x 5”, making them the ideal size for treats, toys, or small treasures. The design is worked flat on 2 needles, simplifying the crafting process and allowing knitters of all skill levels to join in on the fun. While gauge isn’t critical, aim for a compact stitch to avoid any stuffing from peeking through your creations.
For this project, I used DK yarn, and the color combinations are limitless! Feel free to unleash your creativity with your chosen colors. To get started, gather the following materials: UK No 10 (3.25mm) needles or US size 3, a tapestry or darning needle for sewing up, fluffy toy stuffing, and white cardboard for crafting the faces on your bags.
Here are my suggested main colors: vibrant Orange, lively Green, and bold Black DK (8Ply). Below is the recommended amount of yarn you'll need for this enchanting project:
- Bags: 20g each
- Face: 5g each for the base – additional yarn required for features
When it comes to features, you might also want to consider these additional colors:
- 10g Black for details
- A small scrap of Red for Mummy eyes
- 5g White for eyes and extra features
- Scraps of any color for hair embellishments
- 5g for creating handles
I kindly allow the finished products made from this pattern to be sold by hobby sellers or donated to charity, provided that the designer's details are included. This way, more people can enjoy the joy of crafting while also sharing the love with those in need.
So, grab your needles and get ready for an enjoyable knitting experience. Create these charming bags for personal use, gifts, or festive décor, and spread a little happiness with your handmade creations! Happy knitting!
