Maple Leaf Collection crochet pattern includes two different sizes of maple leaf to crochet (and a bonus Canadian flag pattern). Each leaf is worked in one piece, with a clever construction that gives a realistic shape and the suggestion of veins.

Use a single crocheted maple leaf as an appliqué on a hat or sweater, glue it onto a greetings card, add a pin back and make a maple leaf brooch. Crochet lots of leaves in a variety of colours and scatter them on your mantelpiece or Thanskgiving table, or group them together into a beautiful fall garland or wreath.

Maple Leaf Collection is an original crochet pattern by June Gilbank, including patterns for two different sizes of realistic leaves (plus the flag background for the larger sized leaf). When worked with the suggested yarn and hook, the leaves are approximately 2.75" and 3.5" wide, but you can easily vary the size of your maple leaves by using a finer yarn with a smaller hook to make a smaller leaf, or heavier yarn with a larger hook to make a larger leaf.

Details: 
- For each leaf size, you'll find both the written instructions and a complete stitch diagram on a single easy-to-print page.
- For more detailed assistance, the pattern also includes general instructions with photos to help you understand the construction of the leaves, and separate appendices for right- and left-handers including row-by-row photos and stitch diagrams for each leaf, and step-by-step photos for the special combination stitches used.

Bonus Canadian Flag
You can also make the large Maple Leaf into a perfectly proportioned Canadian Flag! The flag background pattern is included as a free bonus PDF with this pattern purchase.

Yarn: worsted weight yarn in any leaf colour (e.g. red, orange, yellow, green, brown), or any other colour of your choice! (Flag: worsted weight yarn in red and white.)

Hook: US E / 3.5mm (plus optional: H US / 5mm for the Canadian flag background)

Size: 
- Small leaf: approx 2.75" (7cm) wide by 2.25" (6cm) tall, excluding stem.
- Large leaf: approx. 3.5" (9cm) wide by 2.75" (7cm) tall, excluding stem.
(Your gauge and yarn choice will affect the finished size slightly – my heavier worsted weight Vanna's Choice leaves are approx. 0.5"/1cm larger in all dimensions than these given sizes.)

- Flag: approx 9.5" (24cm) wide by 4.75" (12cm) tall


PERSONALIZATION
Before you can complete your order, you'll need to enter "yes" in the 'Personalization' box to confirm you understand you are buying a single-user licence for a crochet pattern to make the item you see in the photos for this listing, NOT the finished item that you see in the photos. Your pattern will be downloadable as a PDF file from PlanetJune; see 'Delivery Information' below for details. All sales are final.

DELIVERY INFORMATION
This/these pattern(s) will be downloadable from PlanetJune.com as PDF file(s) once I have processed your order and issued your pattern licences. I aim to process Etsy orders once a day, even on weekends and holidays when I can, and within 24-48 hours whenever possible. I'll email you with your download details when your order has been processed - please check your Spam folder for an email with subject 'your PlanetJune download instructions' if you don't see my email!

I don't sell my patterns through Etsy downloads, as I don’t sell just *PDF copies of crochet patterns* as other Etsy sellers do, I sell *perpetual single-user licences* for my patterns, which give you far more! All pattern licences are processed through the PlanetJune shop, and they offer you all of my licencing perks (including unlimited downloads, free updates, customer support whenever you need it, etc - see 'Pattern Licence Information', below).

Your PlanetJune account gives you unlimited access to all your PlanetJune pattern purchases, in case you ever need to download another copy, or if there's an update to the pattern. If you don't already have a PlanetJune account using the email address you use for your Etsy account, I'll create one for you using that email (UNLESS you request the account be created with a different email address and/or as a gift - please see my shop's Frequently Asked Questions for gifting instructions).

PLANETJUNE QUALITY
All PlanetJune patterns include detailed written descriptions and crochet instructions together with clear step-by-step photos to demonstrate assembly and any special techniques or other potentially confusing parts.

CANADIANS - PLEASE READ!
Please note that due to Etsy's policies for tax-registered Canadian sellers, the price you see when you order from PlanetJune via Etsy is GST/HST *inclusive*. The price may seem high because, unlike most other Etsy items, you will not be charged additional GST/HST at checkout on any PlanetJune items. I know this is confusing, so please feel free to contact me directly if you have any questions about this (or anything else) - I'm always happy to help.
