Halloween Trio by klopferli. I love the blue witch – why aren’t there more blue witches out there?!

Nicole (klopferli) was very busy this time around; she also whipped up both cute AND spooky pumpkins!

…she used Glow in the Dark yarn for the ghost! Love it! And on the right, we have another creative idea: Veggie used bamboo skewers to turn her Halloween set into a mobile. (Cool idea!)

Here’s a spot the difference by Missie of Crafting With Cat Hair. It’s so cute together with the real mini pumpkin!

Launi of Gracious Rain crocheted my pumpkin pattern using ‘yarn’ she made by cutting an old t-shirt into strips! Cool, huh?

Here’s a monochrome set by rastakt – I love how the cat’s eyes look like they’re glowing in this pic!

A set by saudistitcher (the witch’s eyes are hilarious!). It’s incomplete because her real-life cat Bibi made off with the black crocheted kitty before Jana could take the photo! 🙂

These teeny-tiny pumpkins were crocheted from thread by Anne R (again, submitted via my Facebook page). To give you an idea of just how tiny they are, that’s a marble in between them – wow!

And last but definitely not least, jucatka made a spooky Haunted Cactus Garden using the CAL patterns and my Cactus Collection patterns! Too cool for words – I love it!

It’s so great to see such variety here, and I’ve especially enjoyed seeing how people have staged their photos this time around – nice job, everyone! Thanks so much to everyone who joined in; I hope you enjoyed it 🙂

If you like seeing things people have made using my patterns, check out the PlanetJune Crochet Flickr group. Join the group, and add photos of everything you’ve made from my crochet patterns – I just love to see what you’ve been making!

And one more thing: Happy Halloweeeeeeen!

    I really LOVE the cactus garden and the blue witch the most! It is amazing how all the work-ups look so different. Can’t wait to participate in the next CAL! 🙂

  2. They are fabulous. I love how we can take your pattern and produce items that are the same but very different.

    Great job, everyone, and happy Halloween!

      I hoped to ‘borrow’ your Glow in the Dark yarn idea and make a glowing pumpkin for myself, but got caught up in my punchneedle project yesterday and forgot all about it! Oh well, there’s always next year…

        Just make a glowing candy cane or something for Christmas! Ooh, make a oreo with glowing creme! It’s endless! Maybe a penguin, or a polar bear?
