Pumpkin

This adorable little Pumpkin is not only a delightful Halloween decoration but also serves as a versatile pincushion! Perfect for knitters looking to add some seasonal flair to their home or crafting space, this charming pumpkin is designed by Amanda Berry (@fluffandfuzz). It’s knitted in garter stitch using soft acrylic DK yarn on single pointed needles, making it accessible for those who prefer not to knit in the round. The pumpkin’s stalk is creatively crafted as an i-cord tube, which is worked on two double-pointed needles (DPNs).

This knitting project is ideal for confident beginners and more experienced knitters alike. It builds upon essential knitting techniques, including casting on and off, knitting (knits), purling (purls), as well as various techniques for increases and decreases. To finish this cute decoration, a little seaming is required, adding an extra layer of learning and satisfaction to your crafting experience.
