A trio of knitted pumpkins to spice up your Autumn décor. The shaping is achieved through the use of short rows, a single garter stitch row and some gentle soft-sculpturing. Knit these up quickly in your choice of colors. The duplicate stitch colorwork on the large pumpkin is optional.

This pattern includes an update with a link to an extensive YouTube tutorial as well as instructions for the optional curly stem.

The pumpkins pictured were worked in Knit Picks Palette in Golden Heather, Orange, Oyster Heather and Bark with the addition of a small amount of Garnet Heather for the embroidery.
