Every season has its favorite project — and for me, fall will always mean the Scarecrow Crochet Pattern. 🍂 When I first designed it, I wanted something that felt cozy, nostalgic, and festive. A pattern that would look at home on a mantle, a craft fair table, or tucked into the arms of a child heading to a fall festival.
This scarecrow quickly became my most loved fall design — and year after year, makers return to it as their go-to autumn project.
