Checked Gingham Plaid Pumpkins (Crochet)

Bring cozy farmhouse charm to your fall decor with this set of crochet pumpkins in two styles: a classic 2-color Checked Pumpkin and a 3-color Gingham Pumpkin. Each one comes in small, medium, and large, so you can make a whole pumpkin patch for your mantel, porch, or Thanksgiving table.

They're crocheted in Lion Brand Hue + Me, a soft bulky-weight acrylic-wool blend. Its rich, earthy colors make the color blocks pop.

Each pumpkin is worked in a spiral with the linked double crochet stitch, which makes a thick, sturdy fabric with crisp color blocks. There's no shaping. You crochet a simple tube, gather the top and bottom, then add a stem and ridges. The pattern includes yarn amounts for every size and color, special stitch instructions, tips for resizing, and a link to the full video tutorial.
