C2C crochet mushroom pattern free

This mini C2C crochet mushroom pattern is a cute little project with a cozy woodland feel! The small mushroom panel works up quickly and can be used for blankets, pillows, tote bags, wall hangings, and handmade gifts. It’s a fun way to add a whimsical touch to your next crochet project. I used it for my woodland wall hanging and mushroom magic bucket hat patterns.

C2C crochet mushroom pattern details

Here’s a quick overview of the materials, sizing, gauge, and pattern notes before you begin.

Skill level

Advanced beginners. This mini square is made using the corner to corner (C2C) crochet method. It involves color changes.

Materials needed

Crochet Hook Size: G-6 4 mm
Yarn: Worsted weight yarn #4 in white, red, and green. I used Lion Brand Yarns 24/7 Cotton in white, red, and bay leaf.
Yarn needle: Use this to weave in your ends.
Scissors: Use scissors to fasten off your yarn.
Stitch marker(s): Optional. Use these to help keep track of your stitches.

Finished size

The finished square measures 5 x 5 inches (13 x 13 cm).

Gauge

8 squares (ch 3 + 3 dc) = 4 inches (10 cm)

Crochet abbreviations

dc = double crochet
sc = single crochet
ch/chs = chain/chains
st/sts = stitch/stitches
sl st = slip stitch

Pattern Notes

The panel is made in the C2C technique. You make “blocks” in diagonal rows starting in the bottom right corner and ending in the top left corner.
Each block is made of a chain 3 + 3 double crochet.
Chain 6 to start a new row and chain 3 to start a new block.
You can follow the graph or the written pattern.
The written pattern tells you how many blocks to make of each color and in what order.
↙ You are working on the “right side”.
↗ You are working on the “wrong side”.
The pattern is written in US terms.
