If you’re like me, you’ll love to decorate your space with seasonal decor to get into the new season spirit. Well this season is my favourite, Fall!
The epitome of cozy seasons, fall is the perfect time to light a candle, cuddle up, play your favourite fall playlist, and crochet the piece that will bring you all the autumn vibes. Keep reading to find my top 10 fall crochet pattern favourites!
Most of these will be free patterns but some will be paid. I will clarify if they are paid or free in the description!
All of these patterns are advanced beginner friendly.
1. DIY Oversized Cardigan by “it’s Erin B”
This lovely sweater is sure to keep you warm while the last warmth of summer slips into the crisp air of fall. Erin uses a 100% acrylic yarn but if you live in a colder climate or want that extra bit of warmth you can use a wool or wool blend!
Size: Men’s medium but can easily be worked smaller or larger
Yarn Size : Size 4
Hook size: 5mm
Yardage: 1900 (5 skeins of the big twist yarn)
Stitches used: single crochet, front post single crochet, slip stitch, and half double crochet
Price: Free!
2. Peek-A-Boo Shell Shawl by “Bag-O-Day Crochet”
This unique but simple shawl is great for keeping at your desk, by your couch, or for weearing out! Personally I find shawls perfect to keep me warm when I’m in the office (why do they keep offices so cold?!).
The great thing about this pattern is you can use whatever kind of yarn you want! If you use a smaller or larger one it will just mean the pattern will take longer/less time to make! You can also adapt the size to your needs, if you want a smaller shawl, stop when it’s the size you want, and if you want it bigger, just keep stitching!

10: Crochet Pumpkin Pillow
This trendy looking throw pillow is the perfect addition to your space for the entire season. This is a bit harder than the other patterns becasue it uses intarsia crochet, however even if you are a beginner I think you’ll be able to make it without problem if you work carefully. The above video shows how to make the pillow but for the actual pumpkin square pattern you will need to watch this one (I know it’s a bit awkward but the extra click is well worth it in my opinion!)
Yarn Size: weight 4
Hook Size: 5mm
Stiches used: whichever you would like for the main stitch, slip stich
