The Caffeinated Snail has the cutest quick frog crochet pattern that you simply HAVE to make! This would make a great crochet pocket pal, key chain or back charm. And would look amazing in a plush yarn too, I am sure!

Crochet Succulents and Plants
Free Crochet Cactus Patterns
Let’s start off with come free cactii to crochet. We have two versions here, that are absolutely adorable. I picked them both, as it gives you a choice of size! Either make the mini cactus by DIY Fluffies or the larger cactus on Ravelry – when you check out this larger one on raverly, you will see other people’s makes of this cactus and how you can easily scale this up to make a taller cactus by just adding some rows! I love the little flowers on both, which are great for using up yarn scraps in other colors!
Kawaii Succulent Crochet Patterns
I am a bit a sucker (no pun intended..) for a cute kawaii face on an inanimate object, so I have grouped these adorable succulent crochet patterns togther. Try them out:

Dinosaurs and Dragons – similar but different.. but a lot similar, I reckon.. anyhoo, as with the Green Frog Crochet Patterns above, there are actually a surprisng number of free dragon patterns/ free dinosaur crochet patterns out there. Again.. I will share selection, so you can pick and choose, but also move on to the next green crochet themes!
Woobles Dinosaur Crochet Pattern
We got lucky enough to review the Woobles Crochet Book (which is excellent for beginners by the way) and as part of that got to share this FREE Dinosaur Crochet Pattern. It is simply the cutest and a great way to get started on your green yarn stash!
Baby Dragon Crochet Pattern
Green is for Dragon… and how about making a fun and relatively quick Crochet Baby Dragon? A lovely little pattern from Craft Alotl for Red Ted Art

Crochet Pickle Pattern
Here is a whole set of Amugurumi Food! These strictly speaking do not follow the Jellycat Amuseable designs, but could easily be adapted (surely, all they need are some little crochet feet, right?). I have my eye on that green crochet pickle pattern.. but you may want to give the leek a go as part of your green yarn crochet extravaganza too!
Crochet Patterns for Green Characters
So this is a little vague, I mean what ARE Green Characters, right? Well, I thought in this cluster of crochet patterns, I would bring together.. well little green characters, you know, like Frankenstein is green, as are aliens or pokemon characters such as bulbasaur. So here are the green characters!
Cute Frankenstein Crochet Pattern
Well isn’t this little guy the cutest? I do love a cute Frankenstein Craft.. and this lovely Crochet Frankenstein Pattern is free! How adorable?

Other miscellaneous Green Yarn Crochet Projects to try
Christmas Tree Cat Crochet Pattern
Make a Christmas Tree Cat Crochet Plushie. Of course ANY crochet Christmas Tree is perfect for the green yarn crochet collection, but this little dumpy cat pattern is so fun!
Leaf Crochet Patterns
Of course when you think green.. you have to include some green leaves, in your crochet patterns. Right? Check out the wonderful Attic 24 to make some of these easy crochet leaves. These work great red yarn too!
Turtle Crochet Pattern
Here is a great pattern by the Friendly Red Fox – a NO SEW Turtle Crochet Pattern. Love all the different colours she uses! As you can see from the image, you can make the turtles in whatever coloring combination you want. I think a light green turtle with a dark green shell would be adorable, but as shown blue yarn crochet also works really well.
Jellishfish Crochet Patterns
Another example that works in lots of colors, is this jellyfish pattern. We love to make the tentacles lots of different colours – a great way to use up any yarn scraps!
Crayon Crochet Pattern
I love these little Crochet Crayons! Of course this crayon crochet pattern is ideal for any colored yarn – whether red yarn, blue yarn or purple yarn! But you could also make yourself a Green Crochet Crayon buddy, right?
