Crochet Abbreviations

Step 1: Crochet the White Tip

Start with white yarn to create the pointed top of your candy corn. Work in continuous rounds, placing a stitch marker at the beginning of each round.

• Round 1: Make a magic ring and crochet 6 sc into the ring. (6)
• Round 2: Crochet 1 sc in each stitch around. (6)
• Round 3: Increase in every stitch. (12)
• Round 4: Repeat (1 sc, 1 inc) around. (18)
• Round 5: Crochet 1 sc in each stitch around. (18)

Keep your stitches tight and even to form a neat white tip.

Step 2: Add the Orange Section

Switch to orange yarn to create the middle section.

Join the orange yarn and crochet 1 sc in each stitch around. Continue for several rounds until the orange section reaches your desired height.

Make sure the color transition is neat. To change colors cleanly, complete the final yarn-over of the last stitch in white using the new orange yarn.

Step 3: Crochet the Yellow Base

Change to yellow yarn to make the wider bottom section.

Continue crocheting around the body. Add increases gradually if necessary to make the base wider than the white tip. Work several rounds until the candy corn reaches your preferred size.

The finished shape should have a narrow white tip, a bright orange middle, and a rounded yellow base.

Step 4: Add the Cute Face

Give your candy corn its adorable personality by adding two eyes and a small smile.

1. Position two safety eyes on the orange section.
2. Leave enough space between the eyes for the mouth.
3. Use black embroidery yarn to stitch a small curved smile.
4. Add two pink cheeks for an extra-cute finish.

For toys intended for babies or young children, embroidered eyes are safer than plastic safety eyes.

Step 5: Stuff the Candy Corn

Add polyester fiberfill through the open bottom. Begin by filling the pointed top, then gradually fill the orange middle and yellow base.

Use small amounts of stuffing to maintain an even shape. Avoid overfilling, as too much stuffing can stretch the stitches and make the filling visible.

Step 6: Close the Bottom

Once the toy is evenly stuffed, decrease the stitches around the opening until it is small enough to close.

Cut the yarn, leaving a long tail. Thread it through the remaining stitches with a yarn needle, pull gently to close the opening, and secure the yarn end inside the toy.

Adjust the stuffing and shape the bottom with your fingers.

Step 7: Add the Final Details

Your crochet candy corn is almost ready! Check that the face is centered and the three colors are clearly visible.

You can personalize your creation by adding:

• A small hanging loop for a Halloween ornament.
• A tiny crocheted bow or autumn leaf.
• Different facial expressions, such as sleepy or surprised eyes.
• Multiple sizes to create a cute candy corn collection.
