I’m currently planning on doing some seasonal markets around fall and Christmas time. I specifically need help finding cute fall or Halloween themed patterns, since they’re harder to come across. Amigurumi, keychains, bookmarks, and accessory patterns are preferred! Self-promo is totally fine as well, anything helps. Thank you everyone!
Do pumpkins! They are so easy to make and I made a bunch one year. They sell like crazy!
My skulls headband is great for markets
I have a ghost pattern on my page feel free to use it just tag my page @crafteralicecrafts on Instagram:) I’ll gift it to you :)
Omg, I’m doing my first market in October! Hang on, I can link some patterns.

It’s a lot, I’m sorry! I can always send you more later if you need!
Goodness, you put so much work into this reply!
I made decor pumpkins last year and barely sold any. There was wayyyy too many other pumpkin decor items, made from all different kinds of crafts. The market was oversaturated with other pumpkins, I couldn’t compete at a price that is worth it and fair to me. But I do have a couple free patterns in my shop. The pumpkin ghost pop sold really well for me last year! I also made candy corn and mini ghost keychains. I didn’t sell a single candy corn keychain, even though I thought they came out so cute! Meanwhile ghost keychains kept selling out!
Link for my ghost pop:
I’ll definitely look at some patterns for that! Ty <3
That looks awesome! Thank you!
Aw ty! It’s the perfect little size for a keychain! If I use it, I’ll make sure to give you credit
Ahh these are so perfect!! Especially the amigurumi accessories, I’ve been looking for patterns like that to add to my plushies, thank you!
Oooh, that’s so cool! I know you’ll have so much fun at your market, good luck with prep! Omg thank youuu, these patterns are perfect. and don’t worry about it being too much, that’s what I needed lol :))
Aw no! I haven’t even signed up for a market yet (I need to get on that) so I’m not sure what vendors there going to be. I’ll check that before I decide to make any pumpkins so I can see if there’ll be competition or not. Thank you for the heads up! I’m definitely going to make some keychains, so I’ll make sure to have a lot of ghosts, and your pumpkin ghost pop is adorable omg!!
Happy to share my experience and hope it helps! It could always be just my area and the markets I was at last year that were like that, so I’m not trying to completely discourage pumpkins. I might even try a couple again this year, just not at the same place as last year.
