Jack o Lantern C2C Pixel Square Free Pattern

Quick & Easy Jack o Lantern Pixel Square Corner To Corner Crochet

Today I have a free c2c crochet square to share with you: Halloween Jack o Lantern Pixel Square

Use it as a potholder or make more of them and sew them into a c2c crochet blanket or simply as a Halloween decoration for your home in a form of a cushion cover, seat cover or wall hanging.

There are so many ways you can use this crochet pixel square!

I used the corner to corner technique to create the pumpkin square, it’s an easy and quick method of crocheting pixelated images, basically, it’s like painting by numbers, but with yarn!
