Go Do Make!

Hi Crocheters!

Fall is literally right around the corner! I wanted to make a quick post today to share with you some of my favorite “fall color” combos! Sometimes I have a hard time deciding which colors to use together for my next project, and I find that images like this can really help me.

For each photo I have listed the closest yarn colors I could find. I live in a pretty small town, so my only craft store option is Michaels! For that reason, I’ve stuck to Red Heart and Loops & Threads Impeccable yarn colors. Of course any brand of yarn will work for you, just find the colors that match up as close to these combinations as possible.

My mother-in-law recently got married, and she had a very similar bouquet to this one. Don’t you love those “pops” of bright colors!?!

People always think “orange” when you talk about pumpkins. But they come in so many amazing colors!

Of course, it wouldn’t be an autumn colors post if I didn’t include some fallen leaves!

This pebble beach isn’t technically a “fall” color scheme, but I loved those blues and grays so much that it felt right for this time of year! 🙂

I tend to work with bright colors, but I am obsessed with this muted color palette. Those neutrals really work well with those blues and greens.

I would love to see the things you create with these color palettes! I hope you’ve found one that you love! You can post your work here in the comments, on my Facebook page, or you can join the Couch Surfer Crocheters FB Group.
