What mummy wouldn’t want to be wrapped up in our vintage ivory sari silk ribbon yarn?

A bisected image, one side being a drawing of the clown from IT and the other side a skein of white and black polka dot ribbon yarn and a cake of sparkly red-orange worsted weight yarn.

The creepy clown, Pennywise reminds us all of a mix between our phoenix rising and polka ribbon yarn!

Does Twilight count as a Halloween movie? I mean…there’s monsters…hmm. Anyway, we totally think that our sparkle white lace weight silk yarn reminds us of a certain sparkly vampire.

NOBODY LIKES THE RING! It’s too scary! But…if you really wanna…make yourself some spooky black hair to throw over your face with our lace weight silk yarn in black. Creepy.

One of my favorite movies: It The Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown! It doesn’t have to be super scary to be festive. Why not make yourself some pumpkins with our ombre recycled silk yarn in orange.

I love From Beyond! It’s such a good sci-fi horror! If you’re trying to match your yarn to that movie, you’re gonna need some pink! Why not try our DK weight naturally herbal dyed recycled silk yarn packs in vintage rose?

A bisected image, on one side there is Ash, a character from the Evil Dead movies, and on the other side is a nest of recycled silk ombre yarn in blue and lace weight silk yarn in black. — Image source

Ash, played by the gorgeous Bruce Campbell, is an iconic horror character. If you wanna match his blue and black color scheme - stick with our ombre recycled silk yarn in blue and our lace weight silk yarn in black.

A bisected image, on one side is Freddy Krueger wearing his hat and striped sweater, and on the other side are two skeins of sparkle worsted weight yarn, one in green and one in reddy-orange. — Image source

I feel like most people’s first horror movie was Nightmare on Elm Street and had a few spooky nightmares. If you’re looking to make a sweater like Freddy’s, grab some phoenix rising and sparkle enchanted forest to make those iconic green and red stripes.

Our queen of Halloween and crime, Doctor Harleen Quinzel herself! Our twist sport weight silk yarn in crisp morning air gives us big Harley Quinn vibes.
