I couldn’t resist making a cute little crochet fall leaf! We have loads of beautiful fallen leaves on our front lawn and I thought I’d crochet up a few more leaves to add to the pile!

Crochet Fall Leaf Pattern

I found some yarn scraps from a variegated skein in fall colors and had to see how they would turn out. They couldn’t be more fun, with the stitches representing the veins of the leaves so perfectly and the colors of yarn giving these a festive look!

These are super quick to crochet. You could make a whole pile of them to jump into in an hour or so ;)

Supplies:

4. Leave one of the tails 1 inch long, sticking out, as the leaf’s stem.

5. Use your crochet needle to hide your other tail.

Now it’s ready for a cute crafty display! The fun part is they all come out just a little different, just like leaves off a tree!

Here are a few ideas for using your new crochet leaves:

• add 10-15 crochet leaves to a 6 foot piece of yarn for a fall garland
• add 1-3 leaves to a small string of a chain stitch ribbon for a gift tag
• add them to another large crochet piece, like a blanket, for an embellishment

Have fun with these cute crochet leaves!!
