Phantom Fungus Wall Hanging
"Make some cute Halloween decor with this mushroom and ghost design, the Phantom Fungus Wall Hanging. This pattern is worked from the bottom up in rows and features 4 mushrooms and 4 ghosts (a quartet of fun, if you ask me). You can use as many or as few colors as you'd like in this design, just remember to have fun. The sample was mostly made using intarsia or floats to keep the RS as tidy as possible, just don’t forget to block your design (it helps!)."
Scary Cute Color Palette Ideas for This Crochet Pattern:
1. Spooky Night: For a classic Halloween feel, consider using black as the main color for the background, with pops of white for the ghosts. Add in shades of purple, green, and orange for the mushrooms to create a spooktacular look. This color scheme will give your Phantom Fungus Wall Hanging a mysterious and eerie vibe that is perfect for the Halloween season.
2. Pastel Dream: If you're looking for a more whimsical and playful color scheme, opt for pastel shades like soft pink, baby blue, light yellow, and mint green. These colors will give the Phantom Fungus Wall Hanging a cute and charming look that is perfect for adding a touch of sweetness to your Halloween decor. The pastel colors will create a dreamy and magical feel that will soften the spookiness of the ghosts and mushrooms.
3. Autumn Harvest: Embrace the colors of fall with a warm and cozy color scheme for your Phantom Fungus Wall Hanging. Use shades of rust orange, mustard yellow, deep burgundy, and rich brown for a harvest-inspired look. This color palette will give your wall hanging a rustic and earthy feel that is perfect for adding a touch of autumnal charm to your Halloween decor. The warm tones will bring a sense of coziness and comfort to your space, making it feel like a cozy autumn evening by the fire.
