The INSPO
When creating this pumpkin design, I knew I wanted the texture on the pumpkin to POP. But then that wasn’t enough. I also wanted the leaves to have a WOW effect. The fluffy bobble stitch texture, paired with the intricate looking but deceptively easy short rows on the leaves, and the fun little tendrils, make for the best realistic pumpkin out there!

I proud myself with writing ultra-detailed patterns for you, so that your crocheting experience is as smooth and seamless as possible. But whenever you have a pattern related question, my Facebook support group is the place to ask. There you can also share your WIPs and brag about your FOs with the community!
The design
The Bobblicious Pumpkin is the ultimate super-stash-buster project to help you decorate your home for the fall season, stock up on handmade gifts for Halloween, and clear up those odd balls of yarn you have in your stash and make room for new ones! It comes written for 3 sizes but it’s easy to adapt the stitch counts, making it possible for you to use ANY yarn you have on hand, and easily create the pumpkin in any size you want.
The pattern
The body of the pumpkin is crocheted first, and then you work the leaf, tendrils and stem separately and attach them to the pumpkin. The amount of seaming is minimal, I promise! Don’t be intimidated by the leaves that might look a bit complicated – I provide you with row-by-row tutorial photos and written instructions, so you’ll be able to fly through them. Before you know it, you’ll be making them again and again!

Designer samples
I used Scheepjes Softfun for my set of 3 pumpkins. I went for purple and pink because 1) that’s what I had in my stash, and 2) it’s a pretty Halloween-ish color combo! I used my 5 mm hk for the body of the crochet pumpkin, and my 3.5 mm hk for the leaves and stems.
