Lots of people have told me how cute the pumpkin hat is, so I thought I’d post directions so that anyone else who wants to can make one.

I used a size J-10 (6.0 mm) hook and Vanna’s Choice Lion Brand yarn in Rust. The website says it’s a Weight Category: 4 - Medium: Worsted-weight, Afghan, Aran Yarn Solids: 3.5 oz/100g; 170 yd/156 m balls. All stitches in this pattern are chaining or single crochet. It takes me a couple of hours (around 2½ to 3) to make each hat.
