A couple of things I am noticing regarding these (pretty adorable) harvest bowl there is a pattern for the bowl itself, the leaf and the stem. I did not notice any pattern for the acorns that are featured inside the bowl. I was assuming this was a complete set to crochet, as seen in photo. It's okay, the bowl is the main attraction, but I thought those acorns were so darn cute.

This is totally easy and totally adorable. I want to make a couple of them to set out during the fall with mixed nuts and hard candy. They will be so cute. Plus I already have a mix of fruit and veggies that I made with crochet to put in it. This is great.

This is such an adorable little bowl to add to my ever expanding collection. I love the leafy touch. I can see adding several leaves and making it look a bit like a cabbage! Any chance of a pattern for those precious little acorn tops? I have an idea for some Fall Fairy Folk and these would make the perfect little berets for them.

I love the colors in this Harvest Bowl pattern. After reading the written pattern for this bowl, right here on this page. I had to make one and it came out so nice. No need to use starch or wire with the double yarn, it stays up. I'll be making more of these for the kitchen table to hold some squash from the garden. Thank you so much for sharing this free crochet pattern.

This is a really cute and inexpensive way to decorate for the seasons. I may make several of them for different areas.
