Free Vampire Cape Crochet Pattern for Wine Bottle | Dracula Halloween

This free crochet pattern will help you make a vampire cape that fits on wine bottles! This beginner-level pattern works up really fast, and gets lots of giggles at Halloween parties.

Bar decorations are always part of Halloween around here. We have a small bar in the corner of our living room that is always a focal point for guests, so I try to fill it with whimsy over the holidays. With a red and black theme, I decided a Crochet Dracula Wine Bottle Cape would be in order. I added it to a dark bottle of Seven Deadly Zins, and it really adds a great pop of color and personality it my bar decor.

It’s fun to direct people to my favorite wine by adding, “It’s the one in the cape,” or “Try the ghost! It’s delicious!”
