This FEATURED crochet wind spinner tutorial offers 2 variations: a Halloween eye wind spinner, which is for Halloween decoration, of course, and a crochet rainbow stripes wind spinner that you can crochet at any time of the year. So, follow this 2-in-1 crochet colorwork wind spinner that features a small stuffed flower at the bottom, just like the maple leaf autumn wind spinner. Except for the color pattern, this crochet wind spinner requires the classic “chain & increase” pattern. So, even beginners can crochet these spinning decorations.

This crochet wind spinner also has a beautiful crab-stitch edging on the last round and is made quite long. But you can also choose to crochet it smaller, especially if you want to use one as a car hanger.

There are also crochet pearls and star beads between the crochet wind spinner and the star applique, which definitely give your finished crochet wind spinner a professional, even elegant finish. I also recommend following this same pattern to crochet a pumpkin stripes spooky wind spinner since this time of the year is perfect for crocheting these decorations. You can also crochet a small wind spinner as a fall decoration. Anyway, continue reading to learn more about this wind spinner project.

Tutorial to Crochet Halloween & All-Year Wind Spinner

This project is a decorative crochet wind spinner designed to twist and spin in the breeze. It features a beautiful spiral shape with colors that look like an “evil eye” pattern from the side.

To make it, you start by crocheting a long chain and then working many stitches into each chain space; this naturally forces the fabric to curl into a tight spiral. You switch yarn colors for each row to build the circular pattern and finish by making a small matching star charm to hang at the bottom with decorative beads.

Skill Level

Intermediate

Why: While the stitches are simple, you have to manage a lot of increases in one row, handle frequent color changes, and assemble small decorative parts.

Materials Needed

Yarn: Milk cotton yarn (5-ply, 2mm) in dark gray (or black), light blue, white, and dark blue.
Hook: 2.5mm crochet hook.
Tools: Scissors, a yarn needle, and stitch markers.
Decorations: Small beads and a flower charm.
