Crochet in Autumn: 5 Ways Autumn is the Best Season for Hooking
Have you seen the magic in the air as leaves change colour and pumpkins appear, this makes autumn one of the top favourite seasons. That is of course, if you happen to love crochet;) It's definitely my favourite time of year to work on crochet projects.
The cooling temperatures of Autumn make it the perfect time to curl up with your latest project. 🍂? No matter whether you're a seasoned crocheter or have only picked up your first hook, I hope that in stepping through these tips and tricks for running an Autumn Crochet Project it will remove some fear/uncertainty upfront so go forth into yarny battle excitement! You read that right…read here to find out the 5 main reasons why autumn is such a great time of year to start crocheting your life away!
1. Cozy Vibes All Around
Autumn and cosiness go hand in hand. When the weather is chilly and you get to snuggle up under a warm blanket with some coffee or hot chocolate.
Maybe a big fat scarf while under a blanket on the couch or those last few rows of that warm afghan. So why not use the cooler weather as an excuse to stay inside and make some stuff?
2. Endless Seasonal Inspiration
Autumn is a wonderful time of year full of colour and texture so there are always many great things to design for this season. Rich autumn shades: burnt oranges, deep reds and golden yellows—colours you can replicate in your work. It's great to work on Seasonal Projects Such As Making Scarves, Hats, Mittens, And Autumn Decorations: Sure these give you a functional item that will work as fall decorations also.
What about crocheting pumpkins for the house or a cosy, Autumn coloured shawl that reminds you of the season? As vast as the colours outside your window.
3. The Ideal Crocheting Weather
For some reason, the breezy autumn air makes me want to stay indoors and get cuddly. I will admit, even in our never-that-hot summer temperatures here in England, working with yarn can be annoyingly hot. But autumn is JUST RIGHT for those bigger projects — blankets and sweaters but especially afghans are cool enough to be done without embarrassing sweat puddles forming around oneself!
I think with the colder evenings and shorter days that autumn brings, we all love to snuggle up indoors. It's a rhythm of the season that comes and goes, letting it be something you slowly do instead of hurriedly rushing through.
4. Holiday Preparations Begin
Crochet gifts for the holidays, Autumn is when we start to think about gift-giving, so it's a great time to let your crochet and knitting skills shine – whether you're gifting that blanket on its own or still making scarves out of recycled acrylic yarn. Additionally, when you are creating a gift by hand it adds that personal touch that just cannot be found in something store-bought. You can rest assured that your hat, mitten or custom blanket will always be appreciated-gift every time.
Getting a holiday crochet project underway in the Autumn gives you months to plan, create and enjoy instead of spending hours making away last-minute projects. Netflix and knit, too. It keeps your hands busy while you are watching all of the seasonal favourites!
5. Community and Connection
Now is the season to gather around a local crochet group or join in on a virtual crochet-along, posting your progress online with fellow crocheters!
Then you might just get that feeling of satisfaction which comes from taking part in a community project, sharing designs or even showing off your creation. There is enough enthusiasm and support from the yarn community online, which can help you keep going all season.
