Spring Crochet Color Palettes to Try This Season

 

🎨 Spring Crochet Color Palettes to Try This Season

Color is one of the first things that draws me into a project. And with spring finally here, it feels like the perfect time to switch things up — think soft pastels, gentle brights, and nature-inspired tones that bring a fresh vibe to your crochet.

If you’re looking for a little palette inspo for your next make, here are a few spring color combos I’m loving right now. You can mix and match these for granny squares, garments, home decor, or even small things like coasters and appliqués. 🌸





🌿 1. Blush Pink + Cream + Sage

This is soft, romantic, and totally beginner-friendly when it comes to combining colors. It works beautifully for spring decor, lacy tops, or anything floral.

Project ideas:

  • Flower granny squares

  • Jar cozies

  • A mini tote or pouch


🍋 2. Butter Yellow + Soft White + Mint Green

This combo reminds me of lemonade stands and breezy mornings. It’s cheerful without being too bold.

Project ideas:

  • Baby blankets

  • Spring headbands

  • Dishcloth sets


🐚 3. Lilac + Dusty Blue + Shell Beige

If you’re into calm, beachy vibes — this one’s for you. These muted tones play so well together and give a relaxing, airy feel.

Project ideas:

  • Crochet shawl

  • Mandala wall hanging

  • Pillow covers


🍓 4. Coral + Peach + Cream

A slightly bolder option that still feels soft and springy. This combo adds warmth and energy without being too loud.

Project ideas:

  • Market bag

  • Bunting/garlands

  • Coasters or mug rugs


🌼 5. Lavender + Sunflower Yellow + White

I’m obsessed with this one — it’s playful and fresh, and totally gives cottagecore picnic energy.

Project ideas:

  • Bunny or chick plushies

  • Crochet bookmarks

  • Spring-themed granny squares


💭 A Few Tips for Choosing Yarn Colors

  • Lay them out together before buying – even if it’s just screenshots!

  • Use nature as your guide – flowers, fruit, gardens = amazing palette inspo.

  • Don’t overthink it – sometimes two or three colors are more than enough.


Whether you’re starting something new or adding to an old WIP, playing with colors is part of the joy of crochet. Let yourself explore, make mistakes, and surprise yourself with combos you didn’t expect to love.

Have a favorite spring palette? Let me know — I’d love to try it out 🌸
