With the sun setting much too early in the day during the fall, it’s often the time of year that I find myself with more time to crochet. Plus, it’s the start of the gift giving season and handmade gifts are something I appreciate receiving and giving.
There are just three short months of the year where the fall colors of red, yellow, green, and brown are highlighted so create a few pieces to get yourself and your house in the mood for hot chocolate, pumpkin carving, fires in the fireplace, and everything else that fall has to offer.

Fall Table Runner Free Crochet Pattern by Red Heart Yarn (LW4982)

To make one like the sample, you’ll need 1 skein each of Pewter, Daffodil, Holly Berry, Mango, and Violet; a Size H-8 (5mm) crochet hook, stitch markers & yarn needle.

Crocheted Fall Blanket Pattern by Beautiful Crochet Stuff
This sweet fall crocheted afghan was created using super fine Gazzal Baby Cotton yarn (Content: 60% Cotton, 40% Polyacrylic) and a Size D Crochet Hook (3mm). The colors appear to be white (3432), beige (3424), orange (3416), and bright orange (3419) and you’ll need about 20 skeins total (though you’ll need more beige than the others). This yarn is not easy to find in the US so if you’re unable to find all of the colors, you could substitute Red (3418) or Mustard Yellow (3417) for any missing colors. This is one of my favorite cotton yarns, but it can be a bit on the pricey side unless you purchase it in a 5-skein pack. It’s currently available via Amazon.com and Ebay.

Dancing Leaves Coasters by Red Heart Yarn (LC3430)
These fun and colorful Dancing Leaves Coasters can be used for more than just protecting your furniture. Scatter them around the table and add flowers, pinecones, branches, and other natural material for a fabulous centerpiece. These are done in size 10 crochet thread, but you could certainly make them with any acrylic yarn as well, the size will increase and you’ll need to use a larger hook – a G hook is perfect and you could make them with leftover thread from the afghan above.

Free Crochet Pattern – Pumpkin Harvest Hat by Cathy Kurtz (Ravelry download)
This is a fabulous pumpkin hat because, without a face, it’s perfect for celebrating fall or even Thanksgiving. It has information on how to size it for larger children (including you adults who refuse to grow up! The pattern calls for Red Heart Super Saver in Carrot and Frosty Green, but I would recommend Red Heart With Love in Mango and Lettuce or Red Heart Soft in Tangerine and Leaf. Be sure to ready Cathy’s notes about sizing before you start crocheting if you need a specific size.

You’ll also need a 4.5 mm Crochet Hook – in the US, a G hook is 4.0 and an H hook is 5.0 so pick the one that matches your crochet style – crochet tightly? Go with the H. Loosey goosey? Go with the G. Either way, if the pattern offers a gauge measurement, stop and measure.
