Even though I’m just now releasing this pattern, I’ve had it in mind to make a candy corn witch hat for a while. Years and years ago, I saw a candy corn witch costume in a Halloween costume catalogue, and fell in love with the idea! It’s the perfect combo of two Halloween symbols.

When designing this yarn, I knew I wanted a chunky yarn that would have a stiff structure when worked up, in order to maintain the “cone” shape of the hat. A favorite chunky yarn of mine is Lion Brand Hometown USA. It comes in so many different colors, and is incredibly affordable and versatile for a chunkier yarn! New York White (on Amazon HERE), Pittsburgh Yellow (on Amazon HERE), and Syracuse Orange (on Amazon HERE) are the perfect candy corn colors!

You could also make this hat in other colors, like fun stripes in Halloween colors. Or, make it a solid color and add stars to make the cutest wizard hat ever! You could customize this to whatever your Halloween costume is – just use your imagination!

So who’s ready to have some frightful fun?! Grab your broomsticks…errr…crochet hooks….and let’s get started!
