The Trailing Leaves Hat is here 🍃 a cosy, wearable make


Hi Reader,

I’m so happy to share this with you — the Trailing Leaves Hat is officially launching today! 🍃

This design is all about quiet texture and calm stitching. It’s the kind of project you can pick up in the evening, enjoy without counting every stitch, and end up with a hat you’ll genuinely wear again and again.

If you love crochet that feels soothing but still looks beautifully detailed, this one’s for you.

✨ About the Trailing Leaves Hat

  • Relaxing, rhythmic stitches that are easy to create
  • Leaf-inspired texture with a classic, wearable finish
  • A satisfying make for confident beginners and beyond
  • Designed to coordinate with the Trailing Leaves Mittens and Blanket

🧶 How you can get the pattern

  • Ad-free, printable PDF on Etsy and Ravelry
  • Free to view on the blog for subscribers (perfect if you don’t mind scrolling)

If you like to crochet offline, highlight your size, or keep patterns neatly stored for later, the PDF makes the whole experience calmer and easier.

This hat makes a lovely weekend project, a thoughtful gift, or a slow seasonal make just for you.

Happy crocheting,
Gemma

Hi Reader, I’ve got something a bit different for you this week. It’s a crochet tie! I had an idea for a men’s tie in slate grey and blue, with the kind of classic, modern look you see in a woven tie, but this one is made with a gorgeous herringbone texture. That became the Slate Mens Tie, and I’m really pleased with how it turned out. It’s worked in fingering weight yarn with a 3mm hook, uses just a few stitches, and is the full length of a man's tie. It’s an easy-level project, perfect for...

Hi Reader, It's definitely turning chilly now (in fact I've been wearing two jumpers while I'm sat working the past couple of days!) But that also means it's crochet season, and I have definitely been busy! My tweed acorn pattern is out today - I actually designed this over a year ago but didn't have time to release it last autumn! Worked in worsted weight tweed yarn and stuffed so it holds its shape, it measures 6.5 x 3.5 inches (16.5 x 9 cm). It’s an easy make that takes about 1-2 hours,...

Hi Reader, The weather is definitely getting colder now, which means it's time for autumn beanies! My new Cobnut Beanie pattern is out today. It's worked in the pique stitch, which gives a lovely textured fabric, and it's made in warm autumnal colours. It's crocheted side to side, then seamed, and the brim is folded over to finish it off. It's an easy make that takes around 5-10 hours, and it comes in six sizes, from newborn right up to medium/large adult, so you can make one for the whole...
