Pattern Design + Construction
This quick and easy crochet pattern makes the perfect spooky coffin décor! Using a few basic stitches, this free pattern is a quick way to add a festive Halloween touch to any space. The versatile design is perfect for crochet coasters, bunting, ornaments or an applique!
Each Crochet Coffin is worked in flat rows of single crochet with the border added at the end. The cross is stitched on using a tapestry needle. The finished coffins measure approximately 5.5 inches tall. You could easily make larger coffins by increasing your yarn weight and crochet hook sizes.

Yarn:
For this free pattern, we'll be using medium (4) worsted weight yarn. I really enjoy using worsted weight yarn for most of my projects because of the versatility as well as the availability in most craft stores. Worsted weight yarn also tends to come in very affordable brands. You can easily substitute with other brands and colors as long as the ounces per gram are similar. I've used the following for this project:
Red Heart Super Saver, Medium 4, 7 oz / 198 g / In the color Light Jasmine
Red Heart Super Saver, Medium 4, 7 oz / 198 g / In the color Café Latte
