Yarn: Bernat Softee Chunky Yarn in Pumpkin (3 skeins), Lion Brand Vanna’s Choice in Barley (for the stem)
Crochet hook: US size L/8mm, US Size J/6mm for the stem
Also needed: fiber-fill, yarn needle
Gauge: not necessary for this project
Size: approximately 18 inches tall
Pattern instructions:
Chain 51 sts.
Turn the chain over and Single Crochet in the back ridges of each chain.
Once the row is finished, make a turning chain and turn the work over. Single crochet in the back of each chain. Repeat, making a turning chain each time you finish a row. Work until your piece measures 32 inches. Cut the end of the yarn, leaving a long tail.
Finishing:
Once you are finished knitting, fold the piece over and sew the side seam using a yarn needle. Turn the piece inside out.
Make a running stitch (by weaving in and out) around the bottom of the pumpkin. Pull to gather until the opening is closed. Make a knot.
Once you stuff the pumpkin it will take on a rounded shape. Use a liberal amount of stuffing so it easily stands upright. Make another running stitch along the top. Pull to gather. If needed: make a few stitches to close the opening. Don’t worry if there’s still a small opening. The stem will cover it.
There’s no exact pattern for crocheting the stem. Pick up stitches around the top of the stem and make a single crochet around the top of the pumpkin. Work for a few rounds until the stem is as long as you like.
On the last row, single crochet in every other stitch to decrease. Break yarn and weave in ends.
