September is upon us, and with it comes lots of fun crochet ideas! If you’re wondering what to crochet in September, this post is for you. I’m excited to share 5 fun September crochet themes, with free patterns in each category.

1. Fall Crochet

Let’s jump right in! With September, we are on the brink of Fall. I don’t know about you, but I’m getting excited about all things pumpkin spice. 😆 So here are some fun fall crochet patterns to check out.

Crochet Pumpkin Coaster

A fun, quick little decoration are these crochet pumpkin coasters! You can make them in 2 different shapes, and all you need is some worsted weight yarn. They would look so cute around the house!

Fall Foliage Crochet Patterns

Another wonderful thing about Fall is the foliage – the leaves changing colors will always be one of my all time favorite things. Here is a list of Fall Foliage Crochet Patterns that will get you in the Fall spirit!

Harvest Stitch

September also makes me think of Harvest…so a great new stitch pattern you can learn is the Harvest Stitch! This stitch reminds me of wheat. It is perfect for Fall scarves and sweaters!

5. Outdoor Activities

Giant Crochet Checkers

Lawn games are great outdoor activities – take a look at this giant crochet checker board! I LOVE this idea. What a great way to get kids having fun outside!

Crochet Trivet

Conclusion
