Halloween Cauldron Amigurumi – Free Crochet Pattern

Hello! This free cauldron crochet pattern is the last Halloween amigurumi I’m releasing this year – crazy isn’t it?! Well, maybe it isn’t that crazy since I’ve already released 9 other Halloween themed patterns this year 🙂 It will be sad to say “goodbye” to the Halloween patterns, but I’m super excited for what’s to come next. In fact… I’ve already made 3 Christmas patterns, and it’s only October! Oops LOL!

Additional Information:
• Let’s Get Started!
To start the cauldron, we will first make the top piece of it, the swirly green part. After this, we will make the actual cauldron. Then, we will crochet both pieces together to form one whole piece!

After this, we will make the handles and the drip. To finish it off, we’ll make the smile!

Let’s get started!

Cauldron Top Piece:

Start in green yarn

We’re going to start with the top of the cauldron!
Round 1: 6 Sc into a Magic Ring (6)
Round 2: Change to yellow. *Inc* all around (12)
Round 3: Change to green. *Inc, Sc in the next st* all around (18)
Round 4: Change to yellow. *Inc, Sc in the next 2 st* all around (24)
Round 5: Change to green. *Inc, Sc in the next 3 st* all around (30)
Round 6: Change to yellow. *Inc, Sc in the next 4 st* all around (36)
Finish off now. Weave in ends.

Cauldron:

Now we will add in eye stitch markers, these will mark where to place the eyes later. Add a stitch marker into the 20th and 24th stitch of Round 11.

Round 17: *Dec, Sc in the next 5 st* all around (36)
Add the eyes into the marked areas now.

Now we will align the top of the cauldron to the cauldron itself. We will crochet the two pieces together! Be sure to firmly add stuffing while doing Round 19.

Round 19: *Line up both pieces together, making sure the stitches line up. Going through BOTH stitches, repeat *Inc, Sc in the next 5 st* all around (Pic 1-10, Stitch count: 42)
