Wicked Witch of the West – free Crochet Pattern

Posted on December 28, 2017January 20, 2025 by drunkenauntwendy 6 Comments

I took some time off for Christmas. We had lots of family things and I didn’t have time to crochet.

Last week was my scheduled week to make something from another designer. I am intrigued by all things taxidermy, but I don’t like the idea of dead animals in my house.

Enter Animal Heads: Trophy Heads to Crochet. The link will take you to the Amazon page to buy it. I got my copy from the library. I love the library.

I did the little mouse head first. It was quick and easy and I adore the way it turned out.

I wanted to make a little army of them to put all over my walls.

Then I decided to make the hare.

This was a challenge. While there were charts in the book, none of them made any sense. The neck and shoulder portions were really confusing. I finally finished it, but I may be done with this book. If you get the book, it is in British Crochet terms, but those are easy enough to convert.

On to the free pattern: I made this Wicked Witch of the West for my daughter when she got the role of the Wicked Witch in the junior high musical last year. Remember this pattern is not tested so let me know if you have any issues. Please use #drunkenauntwendy if you post it so I can find your work.

Here’s the pattern:

Note: Entire project is worked in the round. Use a stitch marker or a scrap piece of yarn to mark the beginning of each row. Then you don’t have to count every row. Do not join unless instructed to.

Parentheses indicate a repeat. Repeat the stitches in the parentheses for the number of times indicated.

The bracketed number [] is the number of stitches at the end of each row.

I spread my increases out so there isn’t a seam on the finished piece. If you do not like this method, you can do regular increases.

Sister Margaretta – Free Crochet Pattern

Posted on December 5, 2017September 14, 2021 by drunkenauntwendy 2 Comments

My daughter was in the Sound of Music with her high school this year. She was super excited to get the role of Sister Margaretta.

Last year she was the Wicked Witch of the West and I made her a Wicked Witch Doll to match her outfit.

This year I surprised her with a nun to match this role. I guess I have to make one each year from now on.

This isn’t tested, let me know if you have problems. If you make her, use #drunkenauntwendy so I can find it.

Materials
Worsted Weight Yarn
I love this yarn – Goldenrod
I love this yarn – Beige
I love this yarn – White
I love this yarn – Black
12 mm plastic safety eyes
Doll Eyelashes
Size E crochet hook
Polyfiberfill
Large Eye Needle

Parentheses indicate a repeat. Repeat the stitches in the parentheses for the number of times indicated.

The bracketed number [] is the number of stitches at the end of each row.

I spread my increases out so there isn’t a seam on the finished piece. If you do not like this method, you can do regular increases.

If you have any questions, please feel free to email me at drunkenauntwendy@gmail.com.

Before starting I recommend you cut a small piece of eyelashes and glue to the back of the safety eyes and set them aside to dry while you work on the head.

Attach to head pursuant to the instructions below.

HEAD

The head is made by doing an oval increase. Sometimes it helps to mark where your increases are going to go with a spare piece of contrasting yarn. Just note that the first row is worked on both sides of the starting chain. The face is then embroidered on before you finish the head and stuff her.

In Beige, Ch 8
Round 1: SC in 2nd Ch, SC in next 5 stitches. 3 SC in last stitch. Working in the unused loops from the chain, SC 5, 3 SC in last chain. [18].
Round 2: [6 SC, (INC) 3 times] repeat bracket one more time [24].
Round 3: [6 SC, (SC, INC) 3 times] repeat bracket one more time [30].
Round 4: [6 SC, (SC, INC, SC) 3 times] repeat bracket one more time [36].
Round 5: [6 SC, (3 SC, INC) 3 times] repeat bracket one more time [42]. Change Colors to White.
Round 6: [6 SC, (2 SC, INC, 2 SC) 3 times] repeat bracket one more time [48].
Rounds 7-15: SC in each stitch for 9 rows [48 stitches per row].
Pause here and place eyes between rows 13-14 approximately 8 stitches apart. Make a couple of straight stitches to act as the nose for your doll. You can also use a bit of red makeup to give her rosy cheeks.

DRESS

Round 8: SC in BLOs [48]. Fasten off and leave a long tail for sewing.
Sew to top of head. It may cover part of the beige and that is just fine.

Back of habit
In Black, find the side of her head and join with a slip stitch into the unused loops from Round 8. Note this portion is worked back and forth.

Row 1: 24 SC around the back of head [24].

Rows 3-25: Ch 1, turn, SC row for 23 rows. [48 stitches per row].
You can make this part shorter or longer depending on your preference. Fasten off, weave in ends.

Jacques the Pumpkin Bear – Free Pattern

Posted on November 24, 2017September 7, 2021 by drunkenauntwendy Leave a comment

I know Halloween is over, but I just finished typing this pattern. Now you have time to make it up before next October.

You can use safety eyes instead of embroidering if you want to. It might read a bit better. Again it is not tested.

Materials
Worsted Weight Yarn
I love this yarn – Orange
I love this yarn – Black
Size E crochet hook
Black Metallis Floss for the eyes and nose or
24 mm safety eyes and 24 mm nose
Polyfiberfill
Large Eye Needle

Gauge – Gauge is not important for this project, but if you are using the kit materials using a larger hook might make you run out of yarn.

Abbreviations
SC – Single Crochet
HDC – Half Double Crochet
CH- Chain
FO – Fasten Off
SL ST – Slip Stitch
INC – Make two Single Crochet in Same Stitch
DEC – Single Crochet two stitches together
3DEC – Single Crochet three stitches together
BLO – Back Loops Only
PUFF Stitch – (Yarn over, pull up stitch, yarn over, pull through 2 loops) 4 times, yarn over, pull through remaining four loops

Note: Almost the entire project is worked in the round. Use a stitch marker or a scrap piece of yarn to mark the beginning of each row. Then you don’t have to count every row. Do not join unless instructed to.

Parentheses indicate a repeat. Repeat the stitches in the parentheses for the number of times indicated.

The bracketed number [] is the number of stitches at the end of each row.

I spread my increases out so there isn’t a seam on the finished piece. If you do not like this method, you can do regular increases.

If you have any questions, please feel free to email me at drunkenauntwendy@gmail.com.

Cacti Carl – Free Pattern

Posted on November 16, 2017September 1, 2021 by drunkenauntwendy 2 Comments

I made a friend to go with Ms. Prickles. Remember her? She’s a super cute Cactus and she needed a friend.

These are the best plants for me as I really can’t kill them. My poor Cacti always get overwatered.

Remember, it isn’t tested. If there are problems or it is confusing, please let me know. Use #drunkenauntwendy if you post on Instagram.

Materials

I love this Yarn – black
I love this Yarn – Limelight
I love this Yarn – Sungold
2 12 mm safety eyes
Size E crochet hook
Small Terra Cotta Pots
Poly fiberfill
Large eye blunt needle

Abbreviations

Ch – Chain
SC – Single Crochet
INC – 2 Single Crochet in designated stitch
DEC – Single Crochet 2 stitches together
DC – Double Crochet
BLO – back loops only

Gauge is not important for this project unless you have purchased a kit. Using the right size hook is important to ensure you have enough yarn.

Notes: Almost the entire project is worked in the round. Use a stitch marker or a scrap piece of yarn to mark the beginning of each row. Then you don’t have to count every row. Do not join unless instructed to.

Parentheses indicate a repeat. Repeat the stitches in the parentheses for the number of times indicated.

The bracketed number [] is the number of stitches at the end of each row.

I spread my increases out so there isn’t a seam on the finished piece. If you do not like this method, you can do regular increases.

If you have any questions, please feel free to email me at drunkenauntwendy@gmail.com.
