Falling Leaves Scarf Crochet Pattern

The Falling Leaves Scarf Crochet Pattern is the perfect fall accessory! It’s long, wide, and cozy — everything you want in a handmade scarf. Featuring the beautiful Falling Leaves Stitch and finished with twisted fringe on each end, this design is both elegant and easy to wear.

This scarf is made with worsted weight yarn, which gives it a soft drape while still keeping it warm and comfy. It’s a great project for those cooler months and pairs perfectly with all your favorite fall outfits.

About the Pattern

This scarf is designed to be long and wide, making it extra cozy to wear draped over your shoulders, looped around your neck, or bundled up on a cold day. The main body of the scarf showcases the Falling Leaves Stitch, a textured crochet design that looks just as stunning in solid colors as it does in variegated or tonal yarns.
