I’m so very excited to announce my latest free crochet pattern. I’m a huge nerd for Halloween and I love to celebrate all throughout September and October. I wanted to create an iconic crochet applique that could be used for all sorts of Halloween delights. This poison apple crochet pattern can be used on a pair of gloves or a hat to make festive fall wear. Add it to a bag or glue it onto a greeting card for a fun Halloween gift.
Do you have any other ideas for ways to use this poison apple crochet pattern? I bet you do! I can’t wait to see what all you clever crafters come up with. Please share and tag your creations with #poisonappleapplique so we can see them all in one place!
I used mine to make a cool punky Snow White cosplay that I wore when I visited the place where they filmed the Halloweentown movies in Oregon.

Sew the green ooze onto the red apple using the green yarn tails. You’ll need to sew around the whole thing and especially along each “drip” so that it all lies flat. Sew the brown stem at the top middle of the red apple using the brown yarn tails. Sew the applique onto whatever you would like using the red yarn tails.
