10 Free Crochet Candy Cane Patterns
Flat, stuffed, twisted & curlicue — all free for Christmas
Start flat if you're a beginner
Worked in rows, no stuffing — a flat cane finishes about 4 inches tall and lies neatly on a card, a gift, or a tree branch.
Stuffed canes hold their shape
Plump, round and striped all the way around — stuffed as you go, they hang beautifully and survive little hands.
Classic tree ornaments
Made to hang, with a chain loop built into the design — ready for the tree as soon as you weave in the ends.
Twisted & curlicue spirals
Twist two single-colour strips together, or twist two curlicues with wire inside — no fiddly mid-round colour changes.
Keep the hook curved
Three ways that work: a pipe cleaner or wire inside, blocking a flat cane into shape, or short rows that build the curve in.
