Fall Harvest Pillow Knitting Pattern

Fall is a great time to freshen up the inside of your home with some new decor. Seasonal pillows are pretty fast projects that easily change the look of your couch.

This Fall Harvest Pillow from Yarnspirations looks complicated but it’s actually pretty easy stranded colorwork (reading a chart is required) and only five colors of Paton’s Classic Wool are used in the project.

To make it even easier, the back is solid color knitting so it will go a lot faster. You could even flip the pillow over and just show the back as the front when you don’t feel like squirrels and acorns anymore.

Did you know that only Americans call it Fall? When English poets started using the phrase “the fall of leaves” it became popular to call the season fall. But by the mid-1800s, after the split of the colonies from England led to language change, England reverted back to Autumn and the Americans retained the name fall. But it is also known as Harvest,

Do you know why maple leaves are so red? The color orange/red and yellow are created from the sugar levels in the leaves, hence why Maple leaves are bright red.

A Terry’s Chocolate Orange is a classic Christmas gift in the UK that has become more popular in America as well. And if you know knitters, you know they’re going to cover something in knitting if they can, so there are lots of different Christmas themed chocolate orange knitting patterns out there (which you could use for an actual orange as well if that’s in your traditions).

Chocolate orange covers seem to be one of those projects where a designer makes a lot of variations on the theme, so we’ll just touch on a few here but you can further explore the designer’s works if you like what you see.

Wild Welsh Knitting has a cute little set of orange covers that look like little drawstring bags. There’s a snowman, a Christmas tree and a robing, and they are all worked in DK weight yarn. This designer has lots of cute little Christmas projects, not just for oranges.

Wendy Morgan has a bunch of chocolate orange cover knitting patterns, not just for Christmas, but for our purposes I wanted to point out the set that includes a Santa, reindeer and Christmas pudding. It’s available on Ravelry, and the pieces are worked flat using DK weight yarn.

Rebecca Roberts is another designer on Ravelry who does a bunch of Christmas chocolate orange cover knitting patterns, but I wanted to share this post box one because I think it’s really cute and not a design I’ve seen from others. It has a little bird on top and you could change up the colors to make it a TARDIS (yes I know that’s a phone box, not a mail box, but still) if you wanted.

Made by Marianna has a great set of her Christmas orange cover knitting patterns available on Etsy if you want to make a bunch of different designs. This collection includes six patterns: a Christmas pudding, Santa hat, snowman, Christmas trees, elf hat and Santa’s belt. The Christmas tree is shown above. All of the patterns use DK yarn.

Secret Garden England has a bunch of cute holiday patterns, too, but if you’re stitching for someone who doesn’t have a lot of Christmas cheer, you’ll want to make this Grinch one. The details are so cute, and while you’ll need more supplies to add all those things, it’s well worth the effort!
