Striped pumpkin crochet pattern.
This easy-to-follow crochet pattern is for two versions of a striped pumpkin ornament.
Made with double knitting (DK, light worsted weight, Category 3) yarn and a 3.5mm (US: E-4) crochet hook, the finished crochet pumpkins are approximately 7cm (2¾ inches) in diameter.
However you can easily make larger or smaller pumpkins by choosing a different weight yarn and matching hook. The pattern includes detailed notes on choosing an appropriate yarn.
This 18 page pattern is fully illustrated with colour photos and tips are provided throughout. Tutorials on changing colour and making invisible decreases are also included. Plus all my crochet patterns come with my full e-mail support if you have any questions whatsoever.
In addition to the photo-tutorial, for more experienced crocheters or once you are familiar with the pattern, the file includes a one-page unillustrated pattern in standard crochet notation for ease of printing and quick reference. The best of both worlds!
This pattern is available in both UK and US crochet terminology. Both documents will be available for you on purchase and you can choose whichever you prefer to use.
Please see my other crochet patterns for more matching pumpkins and gourds to make a wonderful autumn display.

Little Conkers exists to help you get the most from your time and pennies - whether you're making something for yourself or as a gift - as a way of spreading the joy of creativity.
I know that, for many people, creativity is often fitted into the slivers of time that you can find between all the other "must dos" in your life. But you know that making something yourself means it can be exactly what you need, look exactly how you want and can give you untold pleasure day after day.
My sewing and crochet patterns are specifically designed with the time-strapped and frugal in mind, requiring no superfluous equipment and including practical suggestions on how to up-cycle materials wherever possible.
I am a real person, and always love to hear from my customers all around the world. All my patterns come with my full e-mail support, so do feel free to ask any questions you may have. Enjoy your creating!
