Not only are they beautiful and one of a kind, but you know each one was made with love and care, something particularly special as we get close to the holidays (yay!).
Today, I’ve rounded up fifteen crochet blanket patterns that exude fall vibes. Whether that be the colors, the stitches, the motifs, or just the cozy vibes. I’m going to have a hard time choosing just one!

Amazing Autumnal Throw
This throw is giving New-York-in-the-fall vibes with its absolutely gorgeous bright colors and leaf-like shapes.
They all seem to blend together in the most magical way. The yarn is the richest shades of red, orange, and yellow, and I would feel so happy snuggling up under it.

Crochet Velvet Buffalo Check Gingham
Straying a bit from the traditional fall colors here, but in my brain, gingham is just as fall as red, orange, and yellow.
This black velvet gingham throw is heavy and SO cozy. And as we know, velvet yarn is chunky, so this blanket won’t take very long.
It would also make a great decoration for Halloween time!
The blanket pattern can be found for free on Daisy Farm Crafts’ website.
Farm Fresh Fall Blanket Crochet Pattern PATTERN ONLY - Etsy
Aside from the nice alliteration in the title, the thing I love about this blanket is the variation in the granny squares.
Sometimes, granny square projects can get tiresome because it’s the same exact thing on repeat 100 times.
But this blanket has four different motifs (red apple, pumpkin, sunflower, and green apple) on the squares and a regular granny square. So you can pop around and have some variation, and before you know it, a beautiful fall blanket appears!
This would be a great project to work on all season long. The pattern is available for purchase on Etsy.

Plus, it’s just single and double crochet! The pattern is available for free on Mama In A Stitch’s website.
Autumn Breeze Blanket (Crochet)
This blanket gets its name from the leaves, apples, and acorns on the front of the blanket that look like they’re flowing in the crisp fall breeze.
Its minimalist design and motifs combine to create a simple, beautiful blanket. It’s also made of Wool-Ease, so you know it’ll be comfy.
The pattern is available for free on Lion Brand’s website.
