The result of this crochet candy corn pattern is completely sugar-free and deliciously cute candy corn! It also makes a great amigurumi project for beginners because it only uses two basic stitches: single crochet stitches and half double crochet stitches. These little candy corns are the perfect addition to your Halloween crochet collection — stitch up a batch to fill your crochet trick-or-treat bag, or pair them with mini pumpkins and scary sweet ghosts for an adorable no-candy Halloween display.
Candy Corn Crochet Pattern
Here’s what you need:
- Worsted-weight white yarn, orange yarn, and yellow yarn (I like to use a medium weight yarn in cotton, such as Lion Brand 24/7)
- G crochet hook / 4 mm
- tapestry needle and scissors for finishing
- Stitch markers for keeping track of rounds
- fiberfill stuffing, or scrap yarn

Thank you for the free pattern. I adapted it by keeping it opened, making a button hole, button and stuffing with Halloween candy instead of foam. So far I have made about 20 and will make that many more. I have given them to people I visit, my scrapbooking friends, and will be making them for my Sunday School Class. I love them..They are so easy and fun to make.
May God Bless you.
