Autumn is one of my favourite times to be a crocheter. After the drought of summer friendly patterns, autumn usually finds me surrounded by piles of yarn, hats, socks and cardigans. I love changing my yarn colours to the more seasonal reds, oranges, mustards and browns. There is just something about autumn, I can’t explain it, but it is my favourite time of year. It is still warm enough to be bearable but it just feels cosy somehow. I have made a list of my favourite autumn-inspired crochet patterns. Please make sure to head over to the blogs mentioned, to show the designers some love.

Free Autumn Crochet Patterns

I adore the colours on this scarf, and the stitch is really pretty too! This would make a nice gift for someone, although I don’t think I’d want to give it away.

As soon as the weather starts cooling down, I start looking for cute sweater and cardigan patterns. This one looks nice and easy, and perfect for layering.

Both the colour and stitch used in this beanie are just perfect! I would wear this hat every day.

This crochet mermaid tail is the cutest thing I’ve seen in a while. It really makes me want a new baby to wrap up.

I love cosy crochet socks for autumn. I always have freezing cold feet and three pairs of socks on so thick crocheted socks are the one!

This little pumpkin pot is big enough for a handful of sweets. This would be such a cute addition to the autumn house decorations.

Last but definitely not least, I found this pattern for maple leaf coasters. I think they would love amazing made in lots of different colours.
