Halloween Cable Pumpkins
Get ready for Halloween with our exclusive Halloween Edition pattern that features three distinct and delightful patterns of Halloween pumpkins! This edition is perfect for all knitting enthusiasts looking to add a seasonal touch to their décor. The collection includes a big pumpkin measuring approximately 7.9 x 9.8 inches (20 x 25 cm), a medium pumpkin at about 6.7 x 6.7 inches (17 x 17 cm), and a charming small pumpkin that's approximately 5.1 x 5.5 inches (13 x 14 cm). These sizes make them ideal for both display and gifting!
Abbreviations: K = knit, P = purl, Sts = stitches, Kfb = knit into front and back of stitch, K2tog = knit 2 together, P2tog = purl 2 together, K3tog = knit 3 together, CO = cast on, RND = round, St st = stockinette stitch. Note: Odd-numbered rows are worked in knit while even-numbered rows are purl. Sl = slip.
In addition to the basic stitches, this pattern introduces the DCD (double center decrease), adding an exciting twist to your knitting project!
All rows are cleverly worked in the round to eliminate those pesky seams, giving your pumpkins a smooth, professional finish. To make the casting on process easy and unique, I recommend checking out my online tutorial, which demonstrates how I begin knitting my toys using a crochet hook cast on from the center.
