Hodge is very excited for Thanksgiving. I mean, look at him. He can’t sit still, he’s so excited.
He says he’s jumping for joy because there’s just so much to look forward to. The food. The football. The friends and family. The food. And all the Thanksgiving decorations and toys he plans to crochet to make the season as festive as can be.
This year, Hodge has helped me gather some of his very favorite free Thanksgiving crochet patterns to share with you. He says you should make them all and proudly display them on your mantel for everyone to see. Or if you will be traveling this Thanksgiving, any one of these would make a very unique gift for the host and a sure conversation starter.
1. Mr. Gobble Thanksgiving Turkey Pattern by Kara of Petals to Picots
The feathers on this adorable amigurumi turkey are made with granny squares. How clever!
2. Squeeze n’ Sniff Pumpkin Pie by Allison Hoffman of Crafty Is Cool
This pattern includes instructions for making a pumpkin spice sachet, which you put inside your pumpkin pie amigurumi. It really smells like pie!
3. Turkey Tissue Box Cozy with Roasted Veggies from Twinkie Chan
No matter where you put this, it is sure to give your guests a giggle.
4. Scarecrow Amigurumi by Stephanie Jessica Lau
This is possibly the cutest, least scary scarecrow I have ever seen. Don’t you want to pinch his adorable cheeks?
5. Pumpkin Amigurumi by Lion Brand Yarn
Another super cute ami that would be a darling addition to your Thanksgiving table.
6. Turkey and Pilgrim Dishcloths from Yarnspirations
These turkey and pilgrim dischcloths will bring a touch of good cheer to whichever lucky person gets to clean up at the end of the night.
7. Turkey Finger Puppet by Sahrit Freud
This turkey finger puppet is so easy to crochet, you can make a whole flock to keep your kiddos entertained.

I love getting your emails. I made the pumpkin for my granddaughter, and she loves it. Also made her a ghost and candy corn…….all so cute. Thanks for your emails

Hi Karen! Thanks so much for stopping by and leaving me a lovely comment. It’s so good to know that my posts are appreciated. That pumpkin is super cute. Along with your ghost and candy corn, your granddaughter has a cute little bunch. 🙂

Hello,my dear!! ❤ ❤ ❤ We have imported the Halloween feast here in Europe lately but I would have like more to have Thanksgiving! …. Not to diminish the importance and the spirit of Halloween (which to most of Christian folks is not clear well enough since I read some strange comments on FB…..
),but I find that thanking God (even if I'm arguing a lot with this entity at the moment….) for the harvest and the earthy fruits is so respectful for mankind and the planet……
November 6, 2014 at 11:54 am
Hello, my friend! It’s so good to hear from you. I promise to keep in touch with your blog more regularly from now on. Now that Halloween and Day of the Dead have passed, I hope to have more time for my favorite people and hobbies. This time of year is truly my favorite. I love the fall colors and giving thanks for all my blessings. It’s good to know that you enjoy these things too. 🙂 Lots of hugs to you!
November 7, 2014 at 3:56 am
Here I am,my dear ❤ sorry I was a bit busy so I can answer to your sweet comment.Everything was ok,I spent Halloween with my companion and the Day of the Dead with the family. There's some new I have to tell you but will write you an email this weekend ❤ ❤ ❤

tomorrow in the afternoon,around 4 p.m. i.e. 8 a.m in the States, I should be free.If you don’t have any commitments we can have a chat.. or we can do that next week!Since I’m spending time alone I have more fredom to choose and can adjust my commitments more easily… let me know what’s better for you…. so I can avoid to write an email,I prefer to talk with you directly 🙂
November 7, 2014 at 8:34 am
A chat would be great! I have someplace I need to be in the morning, but I’ll be back about 10:30 (6:30 your time). Will that work for you?
November 7, 2014 at 9:20 am
That will be so good!See you on FB tomorrow then! Have a great day,my dear, and enjoy yourself! ❤ ❤ ❤
November 7, 2014 at 9:25 am
Perfect! I will see you then. Have a wonderful day. Hugs!
November 6, 2014 at 6:51 am
I love the thanks giving stuff, unfortunately it’s not celebrated here in the UK
November 6, 2014 at 11:52 am
Yes, you are right. Only the US and Canada celebrate Thanksgiving. I guess it’s a lot like your Harvest Festival. Is that right?
November 6, 2014 at 11:59 am
We do celebrate harvest ( but i do think it passes most by) Mum lived in the states so we do still have turkey that weekend, she still decorates up a bit but most think its about halloween.
November 6, 2014 at 12:05 pm
That’s so interesting. It’s fun to learn what each culture does to celebrate the seasons and holidays. Thank you so much for sharing that. I hope you have a very nice November. 🙂
November 6, 2014 at 7:20 am
I continue to be amazed at how the world of crochet and amigurumi can turn just about anything into absolute cuteness! That scarecrow is awesome! Thanks to Hodge for sharing these with us!
November 6, 2014 at 11:50 am
Hodge thanks you for the compliment. 😉 And, you’re welcome. It was his pleasure.
November 6, 2014 at 7:33 am
The pumpkin pie is killing me with how adorable it is! I must learn how to do this stuff! 🙂
November 6, 2014 at 11:49 am
Isn’t it great? I want to make one for everyone I know!
November 6, 2014 at 5:23 pm
They are all wonderful but that pie is sooooo cute! Update. The aussie ami’s are very excited and all want to come but I said only a few representatives can go. They have an appearance to make this Saturday then they will be winging their way to the United States of America to spend Christmas and New Years with the gang at Squirrel Picnic. Christmas in America! They are almost bursting with excitement! 🙂
November 7, 2014 at 8:06 am
YAY!!!! I can’t wait to see them. Hodge and Podge are already planning their welcome party. Everyone who has been missing Squirrel Picnic comics lately is in for a real treat this holiday season. I think I have at least 3 planned. I can’t wait to work with you on the NYE one. It is bound to be epic! Wishing all the Aussie amis a safe trip!
November 6, 2014 at 7:33 pm

Hodge waves his tiny paw and blows you a kiss. 🙂
November 7, 2014 at 9:20 am
Wonderful Thanksgiving patterns you’ve picked! 🙂 Don’t have thanksgiving here, but love pumpkins and pies, turkeys and scarecrows…all those shades of oranges and browns that come with Fall. Beautiful!
November 7, 2014 at 9:24 am
Thanks, Vanja! I love the fall too. It is my favorite time of year. How nice that we have that in common. 🙂
November 7, 2014 at 9:27 am
So many things in common we share, dear Jennifer. As if we were twins 😀
Hope your hands are getting better. Take good care.
November 7, 2014 at 9:53 am
Thank you so much for the well wishes! My hands have been feeling a lot better since I started using bamboo hooks. Trying to take a little better care of them too. 🙂 You are so sweet. ❤
