Hey Everyone! I’m back with another teeny weanie wall hanging, and this might just be one of my favorites so far! I have always had a soft spot for my Autumn Moon Phase Wall Hanging because I am obsessed with anything have to do with the moon or space, so I may have a little bit of a biased opinion here, lol. For the Autumn Moon Phase Wall Hanging pattern click here! So naturally I had to make a teeny weanie of one of my most favorite wall hanging designs ever. I also have a mini version of this wall hanging too because of course I do, lol. What is the different you may ask. Well, the Mini Moon Phase Wall Hanging is 2x larger than the teeny weanie and the Autumn Moon Phase is about 3 x the size of the mini, so now I officially have a set. Have I mentioned I’m obsessed? Anyways, I am so excited to share this quick and easy pattern with you guys. These teeny weanie have brought me so much happiness and I hope they do the same for you. Happy Crocheting!

I’ve also included a PDF download of the chart for this pattern. Materials *4.50 mm Crochet Hook Weight 4 Worsted Weight Yarn (yarn I used is listed below) Dowel Rod or Tree Branch (cut to size) *Yarn Needle *Scissors *Hand Steamer (optional) Yarn Choice For most of my wall hanging patterns I prefer to use a thicker and tighter spun worsted weight yarn. I feel like it gives a lot more definition to the piece and details tend to stand out more. I really don’t focus too much on the texture of the yarn because I steam every single one of my wall hangings, which softens the piece and makes it more flexible and flowy. This is especially helpful for tighter crocheters. The brands I tend to gravitate the most towards are Red Heart Super Saver, Loops & Threads Impeccable and We Crochet Brava Worsted. *KNITCRATE: Get 1 free crate (you pay shipping) and 1 item in the shop for 20% off when you use my code LOVEANDSTITCH at checkout at knitcrate.com. For this wall hanging I used the following yarn: We Crochet Brava Worsted in White – approx. 30 yards We Crochet Brava Worsted in Fig – approx. 10 yards We Crochet Brava Worsted in Almond- approx. 10 yards We Crochet Brava Worsted in Persimmon- approx. 10 yards We Crochet Brava Worsted in Brindle – approx. 15 yards Stitch Key (US Terms) Ch = Chain St/sts = Stitch(es) Sc = Single Crochet Color Abbreviations W = White F = Fig A = Almond P = Persimmon B = Brindle Special Notes -The wall hanging is worked in rows. -The wall hanging is worked from the bottom up. -The 1st st of each row should be placed into the same stitch as the turning chain. -The turning chain does not count as the 1st stitch of the row. -The wall hanging is worked in single crochet. -The pattern is written as: # of single crochet stitches (color abbreviation), example: 8 (W) means 8 sc in the color White. -The odd rows are the right side rows. Even rows will be the wrong side. To learn how to do a seamless color change click here! Dimensions: 4.5 inches wide x 8.5 inches long (not including fringe) Gauge: 15 sts x 18 rows = 4 inch square worked in single crochet.

Attaching the Fringe To create the fringe, cut 12 inch pieces of yarn in White. You will need 3 strands to complete 1 fringe. To attach the fringe, grab 3 strands of yarn in White. With a crochet hook, push the hook through the far left foundation chain. Fold the 3 strands of yarn in half, looping the middle of the strands onto the crochet hook. Fold the strands through the loop. Tighten to create the fringe. Repeat in every other foundation chain. Hanging the Project To attach the project to a dowel rod or tree branch; using a yarn needle, weave the tail over the dowel/branch and back under into the 1st stitch on the top of the wall hanging. Repeat for each stitch on the top of the wall hanging. Knot off and weave in your ends. To hang the project, drill 2 small holes on either side of the branch/dowel. Thread through both holes with cotton yarn and knot off both ends. Trim the excess yarn. (feel free to use your preferred method of hanging the project) Enjoy!
