🍁🍃🦊 October Cosy Autumn Vibes 🍁🎃🍂


October 1st means it's time to get out the crochet pumpkins, leaves, and blankets and decorate the house for the autumn season. The spookier crochet has to wait in our house until the last week or so in October, but it's nice to get the rest out now and cheer up the place, as it's currently cold, grey, and permanently raining here with not much to bbrighten up my mood up otherwise it seems. 


If you fancy having a go at making some pumpkins or a leaf garland, or perhaps even a little autumn friend like Mr Fox blankie, here are some ideas and where you can get the various patterns shown in the photos:


🦊 Mr Fox blankie - make a granny square with 11 rounds of orange followed by a round of white and then one last round of double crochet DC's (UK terms) in each stitch (plus (1dc, ch1, 1dc) in the corners) in black. For the fox head and arms, I followed a pattern by @amiguworld Fox Pattern and then I just sewed the head and arms to the centre of the granny square. I think it turned out great, and it's perfect for little hands to swing around and cuddle.


🎃 The pumpkins in the picture are my Rustic Fall Pumpkins pattern available on Etsy Rustic Pumpkins - (even if you could just give it a look up or a like it would make my day) 💕🥰💕 


🍁 The Autumn leaves are from @sewing_the_seeds_of_love autumn wreath pattern Hobbycraft Ideas Hub - autumn wreath  



None of these are sponsored, just patterns I've had a go at and enjoyed making. Let me know if you end up trying any!

Crochet Moss Stitch Granny Square

Image
Moss Stitch Granny Square Pattern A lovely quick square that can be worked in many different yarn types. I've used Yarn Smiths Create Chunky here which Wool Warehouse kindly gifted me. I'm going to make a cosy, chunky, lap blanket with my squares. Perfect for snuggling up on the sofa with to add that extra layer of warmth which is much needed at this time. The full blanket pattern with step by step photos and full yarn list should be available in my Etsy shop by the end of the year but in the meantime because lots of you have asked about this square I thought I'd get the basic square pattern up on my blog as a little Christmas gift to you all. What would you make with these squares? Abbreviations (UK terms): ch = chain tr = treble crochet sl st = slip stitch ch1-sp = chain one space ch3-sp = chain three space sk st = skip next stitch st(s) = stitch(es) Moss Stitch Granny Square Crochet Pattern: Round 1: With Yarn A make a magic circle, ch3 (counts as first tr),

'A Little Bit of Happiness' Crochet Project

' A Little Bit of Happiness' Crochet Project - To Chase Away the Winter Blues Every year I really struggle during January and February with season affective disorder and tend to lose my crojo, which usually brings me so much comfort and joy. Starting big new projects feels impossible and continuing with previous abandoned wips just does not appeal.  I have tried many different tricks over the years to get through these dark, dreary winter months and have tried to find crochet projects that work for me during this time when I feel unmotivated and generally a bit down about everything.  I have found that small projects with quick outcomes work well at bringing some joy, and have made things such as wristwarmers, a winter hat, or even some small mandalas in past years at this time. However choosing yarn, patterns, and even making simple colour decisions can feel rather overwhelming. So this year I am trying something a little different. I have a square pattern that I d

Mindful Crochet - Giant Granny Square Blanket

Image
Mindful Crochet - Giant Modern Granny Square Blanket Pattern for Giant Modern Granny Square Blanket My very first crochet project was a giant granny square blanket. I didn't intend to make a blanket, I started out by trying a granny square and thought, this is fun, and just kept on going. For my first one, I just used 3 colours (pink, purple and white) and just kept alternating between the 3. If you want to see how my first attempt turned out you can go to my Instagram page and scroll right back to some of my very first posts ( click here to take a peek) . Crochet, Mindfulness, and Well Being I first took up crochet at a very stressful time of life.  I had just had my second child and been made redundant whilst on maternity leave. I had also had a significant death in the family, and I had been in hospital with an infected gallbladder.  Let's just say, life had dealt me several hefty blows all in a very short space of time. It was actually a friend of mine that suggested we cou
