- Free crochet patterns Frankenstein’s Monster! Rawr! This pattern produces an adorably frightening little Frankenstein monster that you can make with medium or bulky yarn. The monster has lots of customizable features, from his too-short sleeves to the scars on his face. This is an intermediate pattern, requiring approximately 2 dozen color changes in the head – but don’t let that scare you!

You could also use worsted-weight yarn and make ornaments or thread/floss to make earrings should you so desire! This pattern assumes you know how to work in joined rounds and how to do color changes! Click here to download the PDF: Eye Heart Potholders

This year, however, I have come up with a ridiculously simple project that couldn’t drive me crazy if it tried. It’s cheap, it’s easy, it’s customizable, and best of all, it makes a great excuse to haunt the local antique mall!
