Mosaic Crochet Pumpkins Afghan Strip
This mosaic crochet blanket section uses a simple 10-stitch repeat to create a geometric pumpkin design. Depending on the colors you choose, it could work for either Halloween, Thanksgiving, or the entire autumn season.
This fall blanket strip in overlay mosaic crochet is actually part of the larger Monthly Mosaic Mystery CAL. The idea of the original blanket was that each stripe would be an abstract representation of that month. So if you follow the CAL, you’ll find 11 other designs representing various seasons. But of course, you could repeat this strip several times to make an entire pumpkin blanket if you like.
Yarn weight: Worsted/medium weight | Hook size: H/5.00 mm

Through the Window Afghan
This simple inset mosaic crochet stitch pattern uses single crochets and chains, with overlapping double crochets which create little “windows” of color. A neutral buff main color, with pops of a bright primary palette peeking through, give this afghan its fall feel. The pattern is written for 11 different sizes, so you don’t have to do the math to make it bigger or smaller.
Yarn weight: Worsted/medium weight | Hook size: J/6.00 mm

Classic Baby Blanket
This baby blanket was thoughtfully designed with babies in mind. It’s warm but not too thick, and doesn’t have any large holes that can catch baby’s fingers.

Herringbone Half Double Crochet Blanket
Have you ever tried the herringbone half double crochet stitch? The stitches are worked in such a way that they slant a little bit. So when you work them back and forth in rows, they make the little chevrons characteristic of a herringbone pattern. It’s an easy stitch to learn and makes a great, subtle texture.
Yarn weight: Worsted/medium weight | Hook size: I/5.50 mm

Benjamin Throw
The muted earth tones in this crochet moss stitch blanket will complement your fall decor beautifully! Moss stitch is easy to work, reversible, and creates a lovely texture.
