I've been struggling for a way to make a leaf that I really like and this is it! I love the way you end up with a neat chain around the outside on both sides, and the sharp point on the end. Thanks!
thanks for this pattern [as well as your zinnia & scarf]!!
just wanted to let you know that there's a glitch on the youtube video for this leaf pattern ... it stops at 1:58 so the last 4 mins. can't be watched. :(
Thanks, I'll check into that video. :D
Thank you for the pattern, can you believe I actually used it as an "ear" for my reindeer. :) I'll be sure to post back to your pattern on FB!
Thank you so much for this lovely little leaf. I will be making dozens of them!
Thank you so much! Great pattern & super easy to follow. First time trying a crochet leaf & it was a success!
... :O I can now finally finish the Oddish I have been working on for years! I've NEVER been able to find a leaf pattern that I liked. >_< But this is so cute! ♥ Brilliance!
This looks like a terrific leaf pattern. Thank you very much! :)

Thanks for the pattern! Was perfect (without the stem) for the Spock ears I needed for my project.
I have been searching for a leaf pattern for my rememberance poppy's and I have found it. many thanks for the pattern :)
Thanks so much for the pattern. Wish it had come up first when I searched :-D ! Now I can finish the roses for granddaughters slipper.
I love the look of this leaf! However, I am having problems with the end of row 1. I do the ch 1 and then I am suppose to slip stitch in the ch1. When I do that I can not seem to pull it thru the chain left on my hook help???
Hi cynh, Maybe you could try making your ch a little looser. Also, go through the back loop of the chain. Another thing you could try is switching to a smaller hook just for the sl st.
Hope this helps,
Jenn
What size crochet hook do you use for this?
Hi Michelle, The most important thing is to use a hook that is appropriate for the weight yarn you have chosen. If you are working with worsted weight, an H or I would work well. If you are using a sport or DK, go a little smaller like a G.
Jenn :D
How generous of you to share the pattern for this beautiful leaf. How pretty they would be also in fall colors, adorning a little hat for an autumn baby!
