Boo Time Cross Stitch Pattern

The other day I shared some cross stitch patterns for pumpkins, but if you’re ready to stitch up some fun for spooky season, here’s a little collection of jack o’lantern cross stitch patterns to get you started. (Of course, uncarved pumpkins are perfect for now through Thanksgiving, but it’s always good to have options.

This easy jack o’lantern cross stitch pattern from StitchnSkulls on Etsy is worked on black cross stitch fabric so all you have to do it stitch the face. This one is perfect for framing in a round hoop (you’ll need a 4-inch hoop since the design itself is about 2.9 by 2.6 inches, and you want space around it). In total the design is 41 by 36 stitches and uses one color.

Another easy Halloween cross stitch pattern is this little jack o’lantern from Bella Rose Crafts on Etsy. It’s just a basic carved pumpkin, with a little bit of stem and vine, but in this case basic is also really cute. This one is also shown on a 4-inch hoop though the design is a little bit smaller at 2.07 by 2.21 inches.

Craft with Cartwright’s free pumpkin cross stitch pattern looks like a treat bucket complete with handle. It uses two colors and measures about 2.6 by 3 inches on 14 count fabric.

Make an array of pumpkin faces for a single project, or use them individually, with this design from Etsy seller CrossStitchFoxy. It’s shown with orange fabric and the pumpkins stitched in black, but you could also do the opposite, or use white or ercu and pumpkins of any color you like. The full design is 82 by 82 stitches, or 5.8 inches square.

I already shared a collection of black cat cross stitch patterns, but here’s another one that also fits over here. The Pumpkin Patch Big Stitch design is from Kooler Studio (designed by Barbara Baatz Hillman) and available from LoveCrafts. It features a black cat with a jack o’lantern and is 57 by 40 stitches.
