Rich in texture and reminiscent of falling leaves, Autumns Past celebrates the quiet beauty of the season in every stitch. Layers of post stitches and gentle decreases create sculpted leaf motifs that seem to swirl across the surface, evoking memories of crisp air and golden light.

Worked in soft yarn, this design captures the timeless artistry of textured crochet while remaining a relaxing, meditative make.
