Hello friends! I have a new pattern for you. This time after my collab with HobbiiYarn I came up with the idea of a cute cauldron for all your hocus pocus decor! Read below for the Halloween cauldron free amigurumi crochet pattern. As always, if you make this I'd love to see it so please tag me (@akamatra) on your social and don't forget to check out my other cute amigurumi patterns!
The pattern is easy and only need minimal sewing. I know most of you don't really enjoy sewing many pieces so I kept it low. You will basically crochet the main body of the cauldron, then add the feet via crochet and then sew in the top that resembles the liquid you're cooking. Easy right?
You can customize the color of the "soup", the eyes and the mouth as you prefer. I use these cartoon eyes to make it pop a bit but you can use any type really. I mean it's Halloween, right? You can even make your own with felt and embroider some red veins in them!

Assembly
Stuff the body and then sew the soup (top) on. You can place the top in many ways but make sure to not cover the eyes with the slips. Note that chenille yarn is not the best for sewing so if you prefer you can secure the yarn end of the top and use cotton or wool type of yarn to complete the assemby of the Halloween cauldron.
You can make a bunch and call them the cauldrons with a spooky voice.
