Sugar Skulls PDF crochet pattern is a fun and colorful collection of 3 sugar skull crochet designs inspired by Día de los Muertos: a classic skull, a beautiful Catrina skull, and a skull wearing a sombrero! Create them in your favorite colors and experiment with different combinations to make your own unique spooky-cute skulls.

The regular skull and sombrero skull are completely NO-SEW, while the Catrina skull requires some sewing. They are perfect as keychains, car pendants, bag charms, or Día de los Muertos altar decorations. Use thicker yarn such as chenille or blanket yarn to turn your sugar skull into a cute plushie!
