I eat lettuce like a rabbit – plain and fresh. I love the crunch, the water content, the simplicity. If any kind of dressing is necessary, give me a few drops of oil and vinegar and voila. Romaine, iceberg, green leaf, red leaf, bib, boston, you name it. Salad. Every. Day. But out of all the delicious options, I landed on this crochet lettuce leaf pattern which can, of course, be made for green leaf lettuce or red leaf lettuce, or both!

The Lettuce Leaf Pattern:
The leaf begins with a chain and a row worked back into the chain. Then, the rows are worked on both sides of the chain, turning at the bottom of the leaf each time (versus working in continuous rounds around the chain).
Start in white:
Rnd 1: ch 31, sc in 2nd chain from hk and each thereafter [30]
Switch to Gooseberry (green):
Rnd 2: ch 1, turn, sc in next 5 st, hdc in next 5 st, dc in next 19 st, (make 3 dc in next st) x2, dc in next 19 st, hdc in next 5 st, sc in next 5 st PHOTO 01
If making red leaf lettuce, switch to Raspberry (red), otherwise continue with green:
Rnd 3: ch 1, turn, sc in next 5 st, hdc in next 5 st, dc in next 19 st, (make 2 dc in next st) x2, (make 3 dc in next st) x2, (make 2 dc in next st) x2, dc in next 19 st, hdc in next 5 st, sc in next 5 st
Rnd 4: ch 1, turn, sc in next 15 st, dc in next 17 st, (make 2 dc in next st) x2, (make 3 dc in next st) x4, (make 2 dc in next st) x2, dc in next 17 st, sc in next 15 st PHOTO 02
Rnd 5: ch 1, turn, sc in next 20 st, (make 2 dc in next st) x44, sc in next 20 st PHOTO 03
Rnd 6: ch 1, turn, sc in next 20 st, (make 2 dc in next st) x88, sc in next 20 st [216] PHOTOS 04, 05 & 06
