I was actually wondering if I would be able to sell the finished product while mentioning where I got the pattern from? Thank you!
Yes of course 🙂
Thank you oh so much! 😀
In point 1, I was only able to do 5 sc then the 3 hdc. The I structions say to fold the ch 3 and slst into 1st hdc, but when I watched that part of the video to figure it out, it went into the 3rd hdc. Its a lovely pattern and I paused in my pattern searchustso I could have a pretty maple leaf (in blue wool). Thanks!
Great pattern! I’ll definitely be trying it. Thanks!
This is super cute! I wish I knew how to crochet.
Thanks Michelle 🙂 Maybe this is your time to start? xo
Gorgeous photos and great tutorial. I enjoyed following along the video tutorial but I shared your post on my blog. Thanks for sharing this beautiful and simple Fall project <3
My pleasure I am so glad you enjoyed it and thanks for sharing 🙂 xo
Of course! <3
Love the leaves 🙂 And you use such pretty colours! Would make a pretty garland too! And funny how everyone thinks the same – I designed one for Canada Day, but yours is a softer looking maple leaf!
Thank you! LOL Could it be the Canadian in us? I thought about a garland as well that would be really pretty!
