Fall is my favorite time of the year, and one of my favorite things about fall is the cooler temperatures. It is also the perfect season for crochet. I mean, I definitely feel like crochet can be for all seasons but this time of year you can make and wear/use crocheted hats, scarves, blankets, etc.

Today I am excited to be joining the Holiday Stashdown Crochet Along. I have participated in this crochet along a few times now and I think it is a really fun one. It is an opportunity to get a start on some holiday projects and gifts, while hopefully being able to use up some yarn you already have in your stash. Each Monday and Thursday from September 30-December 12, 2024  there will be a new crochet pattern shared as part of the crochet along. Each pattern will be a one-skein or scrappy stash buster project, something that can be used as a holiday gift, decor, or wrap. In addition to all of the new holiday patterns, you can also win some really awesome prizes. Click on the link above or the picture below for all of the details on how you can participate, to find links to all of the patterns, and enter to win prizes.

It may seem like sort of a weird time to be posting a new hat and scarf pattern since here we are finishing up our last week of school before summer break and changing out clothes from hoodies and jeans to shorts and t-shirts. But this month I am joining Oombawka Design and the Stitching Mommy as the guest designer for their Scarf of the Month Club (and Hat of the Month Club next week).

Mossy Blocks Scarf

  -This post may contain affiliate links. As an Amazon affiliate, I earn from qualifying purchases. I receive a small commission at no cost to you when you make a purchase using my link.-   

Last year I shared a dishcloth pattern that I called the Mossy Blocks Dishcloth because the stitch pattern kind of made me think of a cross between the moss stitch and a granny stitch or block stitch. Instead of one single crochet, one chain, with the single crochets worked in the chain spaces like with the actual moss stitch (or linen stitch, woven stitch, granite stitch, or whatever name you like to use), this stitch is made by working 2 single crochet stitches, one chain, with the single crochets worked in the chain spaces.

This year it felt like winter was never going to end and spring would never get here, we were having major snow storms into April. But luckily May has finally started to feel more like spring weather and I am loving it, but that does make posting a new hat and scarf pattern this month feel kind of funny, but there is a reason for it. 

Tumnus Scarf

Time for the last project in my week of book inspired crafts. This one is kind of a funny one for me because it is actually not one of my favorite books, but like yesterday's book it is one that has meaning to my family. The book I chose is The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe. 

Sunset Kisses Circle Scarf

Last month I got a KnitCrate subscription box in the mail, part of their knit and crochet club subscription, and in it I received 2 skeins of bulky weight Alpaca/Tencel yarn in a gorgeous red color. With the subscription box you get one knit and one crochet pattern to make with the yarn you receive, but I thought it would be fun to come up with my own pattern to make with the yarn.

I love the colors of fall, especially the variation you see in the leaves as they start to change, from bright greens to golden yellow, oranges, reds, purples, and browns. It is my favorite time of the year. So with fall just around the corner and the hope of cooler days coming and the anticipation of changing leaves I have been wanting to make something cozy and fall-ish. 

Criss Cross Cowl

A couple of months ago I made the Criss Cross Hat and ever since then I have been wanting to make a matching cowl or scarf.

Aurora Scarf

 I feel like for most crafters the end of the year is often spent making projects meant for others, whether for gifts for friends and family, or to sell during the holidays. Either way it seems like we don't keep a lot of what we make, so I thought that would be kind of fun to share some projects over the next few days that are things you could make for yourself. Not that you can't make them for others, just that you could make them for yourself if you want. 

Double Pane Scarf

 Lately I have been trying to make an effort to use up some of the yarn in my stash. I love having a yarn stash on hand but it was starting to get a little out of control and I felt like I needed to use some of it up before getting more yarn. 

Los Colores Circle Scarf

I have very mixed feelings about variegated yarns, especially those with really short color changes. They can be so pretty on the skein, but they can be hard to make look good in a project. I think they are better when knitting but the nature of crochet stitches can make them look like a bunch of colors just threw up on your project. It can be hard to see the stitches or the stitch pattern and just kind of look like a mess.

 Day 2 of my birthday week projects and giveaways is here, and it is a fall crochet project and a fall crochet giveaway as well. I love fall, it is my favorite season, and not just because my birthday is in the fall. I love the cooler temperatures, the holidays, the decorations, the smells, and I love the colors of fall. 

Fall Moss Cowl

Now that September is here and my kids have gone back to school I am ready for fall to be here. Although, I guess if I am being honest I am always ready for fall to be here. It is my favorite season and always has been. I think part of that is because my birthday is in the fall, also it starts the holiday season. But I also just love the cooler weather, the crispness in the air, the changing leaves, the smells of pumpkin spice and apple. I just love all of it. 

Celestial Swirl Scarf

I was recently sent some yarn to try out from Brown Sheep Yarns and I thought it would be fun to use it to try out a new scarf pattern. The yarn, Stratosphere, is a DK weight super wash wool.

I recently had the opportunity to try out some new yarn, which is always a lot of fun. This time the yarn is Cotton Fleece by Brown Sheep Company.

Alternating V-Stitch Infinity Scarf

-This post may contain affiliate links-

One of my favorite things to make with striped cake type yarns, like Lion Brand Mandala or Caron Cakes, etc., is infinity scarfs. The long color changes give the scarves a color blocked look. I feel like the abrupt color changes are not as noticeable as they are in something larger and flatter like a blanket. For this scarf I used Lion Brand Mandala Sparkle in Aquarius.

Cincuenta Scarf

-Yarn for this project provided by Fairmount Fibers, North America distributor of Manos del Uruguay, all ideas and opinions are my own.-

I few months ago I had the opportunity to try out some yarn from Manos del Uruguay. In that post I shared a bit about my connection with Uruguay and why I was so excited to work with this company. When I was given the chance to try out some more of their yarn I jumped at the chance.

Frosty Forest Cowl

-Yarn for this project provided by Kraemer Yarns. This post may contain affiliate links.-

I recently had the opportunity to try out some yarn from Kraemer Yarns, their Perfection Worsted yarn. Worsted weight is by far my favorite yarn to use. I love the drape and detail you can get with thinner yarns and enjoy working with them occasionally but I always feel like it takes forever to finish a project. I love the quickness of projects made with bulky yarns, but feel like I am somewhat limited on the detail and types of projects I can make. So although I enjoy working with all weights and types of yarns, worsted weight is definitely my go to yarn weight.
