Author: Talha

I am a crochet designer, macramé maker and a crafter who also loves doing MATH.

Two weeks ago, I shared this same spooky face design but for the plush dumpling series, and you all loved it. Now, let’s learn how to crochet this UNIQUE food plush for our favorite American dessert – the ice cream cone! So, say welcome to this brand-new free crochet spooky face orange scoop anti-stress treat plushie that is also wearing a small crochet witch hat!

This time, with a FREE written pattern, you will learn to crochet a larger crochet witch hat than we used in all remaining crochet spooky character cone plushies in the series.

I have also provided a FREE printable template to cut the felt spooky jack-o-lantern face exactly that will be glued instead of being sewn. You will love this crochet pumpkin cone plush to have as a treat charm and anti-stress toy as well. Now, continue reading for learning more about this crochet amigurumi and plush cone character toy!

Detailed Assembly & Facial Guide

1. Cutting and Attaching the Jack-o’-Lantern Face

Print & Cut Template: Print the Jack-o’-Lantern face template to 100% scale. Carefully cut out the paper pattern pieces (two eye triangles, one nose triangle, and one wide jagged mouth).
Trace on Felt: Lay the paper cutouts over a sheet of stiff black felt and trace around them using chalk or a fine fabric pen.
Cut Felt Pieces: Cut the black felt shapes out cleanly using sharp craft scissors.
Glue Placement:
- Apply a thin, even layer of fabric glue or hot glue across the back of each felt cutout.
- Eyes: Glue the two triangular eyes between Rnds 7 and 8 of the orange scoop, leaving 3 to 4 stitches of space between them.
- Nose: Glue the small triangle nose centrally between and slightly below the eyes at Rnd 8–9.
- Mouth: Glue the jagged smile across Rnds 9–10, directly centered under the nose. Press firmly down for 30 seconds to set the adhesive.

2. Hat Placement & Sewing

Lightly stuff the cone portion of the witch hat with fiberfill to maintain its shape.
Position the hat on top of the orange pumpkin scoop, tilting it slightly to one side for a playful, asymmetrical look.
Using the long black tail end from the hat and a yarn needle, stitch through the inner loops under the hat brim directly into the top of the pumpkin scoop.
Attach a small black or green bell to the tip of the hat using a small jump ring.
