Skullflake Beanie: A Whimsigoth Crochet Pattern

The Skullflake Beanie combines skulls and snowflakes in a fun Fair Isle crochet design with a whimsigoth vibe. The contrasting colorwork creates a bold, eye-catching pattern that’s perfect for anyone who loves spooky style beyond Halloween. With four sizes to choose from, you can make one for yourself or anyone who loves a little alternative flair.

New to Fair Isle crochet? The written pattern includs a 10-page photo tutorial along with video tutorials to walk you through the colorwork techniques, including how to manage your yarn as you work. If you’ve never tried Fair Isle crochet before, these resources will help you learn the technique while making a beanie you’ll actually want to wear!
