The Filet Crochet body is completed before the spaced DC parts at the top and bottom.2 balls for sizes XS-L, 3 balls for sizes 1XL-4XL This pattern uses Hayfield Spirit DK by Sirdar. Gauge: 1 set of leaves (rows 1-18)= 7 inches XS/S- 29 x 21, M/L- 31.5 x 23, 1XL/2XL- 34 x 25, 3XL/4XL- 36.5 x 27įor better understanding, I have split the pattern into 5 parts:
These estimated lengths are measured by additional rows of stitches. Note: All finished sizes are AFTER BLOCKING. Two balls of this yarn will suffice for sizes XS to L of this pattern. It comes in 100g balls with a considerable length of 345m/377yds. The yarn is a light worsted, medium 3 with an acrylic (80%) and wool (20%) blend, soft to touch (as I’ve come to know most Sirdar yarns are). Eventually, it had to be something simple that let the colours shine through- thus the Fall Leaves Crochet Shrug. However, I was at a total loss on what to make with it for many months after. The first time I set eyes on and touched Hayfiled Spirit DK (Zest), I gasped. Note however that in this pattern, one box stands as DC, CH 1, DC. This is an Intermediate skill level pattern you must be familiar with the Filet Crochet technique. That’s why I decided on the Filet Crochet technique as the right one to use. Since I had just two balls of the yarn I couldn’t afford to use any intricate stitches like post stitches to get the leaf shape, factor in the colour of the yarn as well and the only option was to make the design as simple as can be.
#FILET CROCHET CHART THANKSGIVING HOW TO#
I had wondered how to embed the leaf into the design. It took a bit of cropping a leaf photo, sketching it out on paper and marking it on graph paper to get the leaf shape just right. P.S- notice the green ascent at the collar? I was just experimenting with another colour to see what it would look like. I think the yarn does the most work in this pattern, it is a vibrant beauty. Easily worn over a dress, camisole, or body hugging top. The Fall Leaves Crochet Shrug is a simple beauty. From where I live though, I never quite know the difference by just looking at trees it still is sunny, but there is a shift in the air and it gets less hot. Maybe it is the colouring of leaves to gorgeous shades, or Halloween and Thanksgiving season for people in the U.S of A? Whatever it is, I love Fall, I love seeing (in photos) all the beauty that’s birthed.
