The Pumpkin
This highly decorative pumpkin is perfect for those trick or treat moments. It has a space inside to keep some yummy treats. This pattern clearly details every stitch you will need to complete this pumpkin with lots of photographs. I also have videos on my Instagram account explaining each stitch and technique @makemeroardesign.
Stitches you will learn include: Bobble Stitch, Spike Stitch, Surface Crochet. You will also learn some simple embroidery and working in the round. Although this pattern looks complicated it’s actually fairly simple once you get a hang of the stitches. Please look at the photo showing the pattern layout to give you an idea of how the pattern looks.
