Crochet Jack Skellington Beanie & Zero Lovey

Crochet Jack Skellington Beanie

Crochet Jack Skellington Beanie is inspired after one of my most favourite movies, The nightmare before Christmas. The perfectionist in me has avoided making anything from the movie until I felt I could justify making something that looks perfect to me. That’s a hard to thing to do because after all an artist is their own worst critic.

In the past I’ve made two beanies in attempt to make a newborn Jack beanie, but they were just basic beanies so I never bothered to continue with them. I also have tried a few times to get the eyes right to no avail. I guess the 3rd times a charm because this is my 3rd attempt at a Crochet Jack Skellington Beanie.

I finally figured out just how I wanted to make this beanie after working up my Crochet Cupcake Newborn Beanie. I made it more like a ball on the head as apposed to the usual straight down beanie and I finally did it!! I worked a reverse sc edging in one of my patterns. People complain about this stitch but it’s really not that bad, just work outside the box.

My Jack looks like an angry Jack.. You can make Jacks face any way you want, there are so many possibilities!

Zero Lovey

One of my testers recently worked up a Zero Lovey and I was able to test out her pattern. This is the perfect photography prop set for any fan of The Nightmare before Christmas that is expecting a little baby. I worked up a few changes to the pattern as listed below.

  • Used a US H8/5.00mm hook instead of the recommended J10/6.00mm hook.
  • When finishing off the head/nose, I didn’t work the last round of work, instead I worked a sl st into the next st then fastened off.
  • Made the nose orange instead of red. Zero’s nose is a mini pumpkin.
  • For the ears, too out a couple of the rows near the end to make them a little bit shorter.
  • For the eyes, I worked up the eyes from my Jack pattern above to give them a little more definition.

The pattern for the Zero Lovey can be found HERE.

    They turned out pretty good. I especially like the ghost dog.

    How would I go about increasing size to fit a 18 month old?
