Second to last square! Second to last square! I can’t believe it. Especially with how long/fast/slow/short this year has been, ya know? But it’s still November, that means we’re on square eleven, so I hope you’re excited to meet the Tiny Fall Leaf Cup Square!
This month is the last of my favorite time of year – the Fall. I’ve talked at length on other posts and other social media platforms about how much Fall is my favorite and I knew I had to design another square in its honor before the season left. Which of course means next month will be a Christmasy design. Well, maybe just Wintery. I haven’t decided.
Anyway! I hope you like this design and I hope you’re enjoying this CAL. I haven’t thought of what I want to do for next year but I think I will be doing a smaller square CAL. Maybe C2C some more as I really have fallen in love with this technique. It’s so fun. I can’t wait to see your photos! And as this is the last post of this month, I hope you all have a safe and healthy rest of your month and if you’re in the US, a happy holiday. 🙂
I hope you all are healthy and happy and like this new design. Please be kind to one and other, wear your masks, wash your hands, and be safe friends!
Please note: I was provided the yarn for this pattern by Lion Brand Yarn for the purposes of making this design, without compensation. I wasn’t provided the yarn with the expectations of positive or negative reviews but I did enjoy using this yarn, I’ve used it many times and it’s always a great worsted acrylic yarn.

Notes
- As is industry standard, this pattern is just a free graph and not written instructions but you can purchase the pattern for free in my Ravelry shop.
- This is a C2C pattern worked from the bottom right corner to the top left corner.
- This pattern is a square, so you don’t have to worry about increasing on one side and decreasing on the other.
- Each C2C square consists of 3 double crochets and a ch-3. The directions will only tell you what color (ie: Color A, Color B, etc…) and the number tells you how many squares to make.
- Check out the tutorial by Meghan Makes Do on how to do C2C designs if you’re unfamiliar on this technique.
- You will need to know how to change colors in a C2C for this pattern.
- Rows 1 – 36 you will be increasing and rows 37 – 71 you will be decreasing.
- The even-numbered rows are worked down and the odd-numbered rows are worked up. The even-numbered rows are the Right Side.
- In the photos: Color A is cream (Lion Brand Yarn Basic Stitch Anti-Pilling in Ecru 1.3 oz/ 68 yds), color B is gold (Lion Brand Yarn Basic Stitch Anti-Pilling in Gold Heather 1.3 oz/ 68 yds), Color C is mustard (Lion Brand Yarn Basic Stitch Anti-Pilling in Mustard .5 oz/ 16 yds), and color D is brown (Lion Brand Yarn Basic Stitch Anti-Pilling in Taupe Heather .5 oz/ 16 yds).

Seaming
So I’ve started joining this blanket with a simple ch/sc join – you can check it out here. It’s not a perfect join, so I will be making a post about what I’ve done to adjust it for this blanket in December. 🙂
Don’t forget, you can buy an ad-free pdf of the written instructions for this pattern in my Ravelry shop or in my LoveCrafts shop (coming soon).
Tada! There it is, the C2C Tiny Fall Leaf Cup Afghan Square! I hope you love it and use the hashtag #DivineDebris on Instagram and I’ll share it in my stories!

I adore this CAL. But I wonder if there is a way to create the rainbow block as a smaller block and make one of the smaller blocks large to take its place. Thank you!

No, all the sizes are as written. You'd have to completely re-write the square to change the size. I hope that helps!
