This Pumpkin Pixel Art is worked in the same manner as the Acorn Square Pixel Art that I shared last week with two round Solid Granny Squares and the Pull Loop Through (PLT) Join-As-You-Go method, however, worked in worsted weight yarn as opposed to lightweight yarn. It could be worked in any weight yarn you like though with respective hook.

Materials:

  • Worsted Weight Yarn - I used Hobby Lobby’s I Love This Yarn in Ivory 355 Yards (355 Yards), Terracotta (175 Yards), Burnt Pumpkin (175 Yards) and Small Amounts of Brown (for 1 Square) and Dark Green (for 3 Squares)
  • I9/5.5mm Crochet Hook
  • #18 Tapestry Needle for Weaving in Ends

Material Notes:
Yarn Alternatives: Berroco’s Vintage Yarn, Red Heart’s With Love.

Time Spent:
This square took me about 8 hours, 45 minutes worked in several seatings.

Measurements:
27” Square

Gauge:
14 DC by 8 Rows = 4”

Gauge for this project isn’t essential, as long as your squares are consistent in size. Keep in mind, smaller or larger squares will produce smaller or larger projects.

Abbreviations:

  • DC - Double Crochet
  • SC - Single Crochet
  • sc2tog - Single Crochet Two Together/Decrease
  • PLT - Pull Loop Through (Join) - Explained in Pattern
