My free Crochet Holly Leaf pattern is written below with a simple step by step written photo tutorial or if you prefer a video tutorial, I have also made a Youtube video.

Materials

  • 10 meters of green yarn of your choice
  • 3 meters of red yarn
  • Matching crochet hook to your yarn
  • Yarn needle
  • Scissors

Gauge: N/A. Use the smallest crochet hook you can with your chosen yarn to create tight stitches, this will help your crochet leaf keep its form & not flop.

Size: Using fingering weight & a 2mm crochet hook my leaf is 5cm tip to base, 2.5cm wide.

Notes: The leaf is made working both sides of the foundation chain. The berries are made using a magic circle. Each piece is made individually then joined together.

  2. So glad I found your pattern for a holly leaf! The others I have tried were so complicated that I was ready to give up. So thank you. The leaves are easy to make and so pretty.
    Just one point – in the written instructions, it says in Row 1 :- sc in 2nd chain, SC, hdc, 8dc… Yet in the video and photo, it does not have the second SC.(my capitals)

    1. I am so happy I could help. Thank you for the note I will add it in the text of the video! Have a wonderful day. Love, Roseanna.
