This is a crochet pattern with video tutorial showing how to crochet the Cabot Pumpkin Wreath, a cozy, cable stitch wreath complete with pumpkin leaves and curly vine that is perfect for Fall decorating! With removable accents, it can take you through Winter too!

Rather than permanently adhering the embellishments (though you can), use sewing pins. They hold the items securely in place, and are easy to pull out if you want to change up the decor.

Let’s Talk Yarn:
Now, I’ve used Emma’s Yarn Washable Worsted for my wreath. This is a really lovely, 100% superwash merino wool that is hand dyed at my local yarn shop, Four Purls, in Winter Haven, Florida. It’s soft, squishy and beautiful, and I knew the Volume colorway would make for the perfect Fall wreath! Similar yarns are going to be Lion Brand Wool Ease and WeCrochet Swish, but you can use your favorite worsted weight yarn out of your stash! For most of the wreaths that I make, I use Red Heart Super Saver.

I’ve used Emma’s Yarn Comfy Cotton DK in the Canopy colorway for my curly vine and one of the Pumpkin Leaves. This is a really lovely, 50/50 blend of cotton and superwash merino wool that is hand dyed at my local yarn shop, Four Purls, in Winter Haven, Florida. It’s soft, squishy and beautiful. Similar yarns are Berroco Vintage DK and WeCrochet Swish DK, but you can use any lightweight yarn for similar results, or switch up the weight of the yarn to get different sizes.

For my other Pumpkin Leaf, I used WeCrochet Dishie (worsted weight) in Honeydew. Similar yarns are going to be Lily Sugar n Cream and Bernat Handicrafter, though they seem to be a heavier worsted weight than the Dishie, which is really more like Crafters Secret Cotton from Hobby Lobby. I really love how this color goes together with the Canopy green, and the size difference I was able to achieve with a slight change in yarn weight and hook size following the same exact pattern. Feel free to experiment with the accents! There are so many fun possibilities.
