    Fall colors for my blanket?

    I'm making a granny square blanket with small squares. I'm not too sure what other colors I could use for fall. so far I have done black, many shades of orange, and some red(the leafs I'm putting on at the end) brown also.
    Happy Crocheting

    Sarah, you might want to try various shades of green, the dull colors like sage, not the bright ones. Also various shades of gold and purple. Hope this helps.--Jan

    I'll use rust, dark teal and the colours in the sunset as well. Subdued pinks, yellows and reds work well. As does a little bit of baby blue thrown in for good measure.

    A light tan or ecru is always good for a filler colour as well.

    hi sarah, red heart has a varigated yarn called maraish--i think that is spelled right --i do not have the wrapper. it has oranges, burgandy, cornmeal, brown tones to it. i have posted a picture of some hats and a purse to go with it in the "picture section". it reminds me of fall.
