Tips for Your Fall Crochet Projects
- Start early for markets. Small items like ghosts, pumpkins and ornaments sell well at autumn craft fairs, so make a batch ahead of time.
- Use a warm color palette. Orange, mustard, rust, cream and sage green always look cozy together.
- Mix textures. Combine smooth cotton pumpkins with fuzzy or chunky yarn ones for a beautiful display.
- Batch your work. Crochet all the same pieces first, then assemble them together. It is faster and more relaxing.
