Rustic Farmhouse Crochet Acorns: Free Crochet Pattern

Welcome to the Rustic Farmhouse Acorn crochet pattern, where cozy meets festive charm! With this pattern, you can create delightful acorns that will effortlessly enhance your home decor for both Fall and Christmas celebrations. Designed for fun and ease, this project features two written sizes, but don’t hesitate to get creative—by simply switching out the yarn weight, you can make a variety of sizes to suit your needs.

Using the Wool of the Andes yarn line from WeCrochet, you’ll enjoy a rustic and natural colour palette that captures the essence of the season.

For small and medium-sized acorns, opt for bulky yarn, while worsted-weight yarn will help you whip up adorable miniature versions. If you’re looking to crochet larger pieces, you can easily triple the worsted-weight yarn for stunning large and extra-large acorns. Plus, we’ve included a handy tip on how to transform worsted yarn into super bulky yarn for even more versatility.

Each acorn is topped with a rustic cord and features a charming cinnamon stick stem that adds a delightful touch. Stuffed with polyester fill, these acorns are not just beautiful; they’re also perfect for adding warmth and character to your home or for selling at local markets. You can easily complete a set in just one evening!

For those who prefer a visual guide, we’ve included a step-by-step video tutorial on YouTube to help you along the way. Start on this fun, festive project and bring the spirit of rustic farmhouse charm to your space!

Substituting Yarn

Our Rustic Farmhouse Crochet Acorn pattern features Wool of the Andes in both worsted and bulky weight yarn, chosen for its rustic appeal and wide colour variety. The great news is that gauge is not critical for this pattern, allowing you plenty of flexibility when selecting substitute yarns.

You can easily use worsted-weight yarn and double or triple it for this pattern or opt for bulky or superbulky-weight yarn so that only a single strand is needed. Additionally, using a single strand of worsted-weight yarn is perfect for creating miniature acorns.

Filling the Crochet Acorn

Before closing the acorn, make sure to fill it with polyester fiberfill to give it shape.

Finishing

Using a yarn needle, weave through the flo of each stitch around the opening. Pull the yarn to close the opening and weave in any loose tails. Next, use a glue gun to secure the jute cord around the top of the acorn, covering approximately one-third of its upper portion. Finally, break off a small piece of cinnamon stick and glue it to the center top of the acorn to create a charming stem.

Experiment with various yarn weights to create a variety of acorns in different colours and sizes. Wool of the Andes will give your acorns a rustic farmhouse appearance, and it comes in a wide array of beautiful colours. Be sure to maintain a tight stitch throughout your project, ensuring the stuffing remains hidden for a polished finish. Enjoy the creative process, and have fun customizing your acorns!

I hope you love this pattern! You might also love these crochet patterns!
