Each pumpkin is a small wonder of airy lightness and almost weightless texture, created to decorate your cozy corner or to become a heartfelt gift for someone dear.

With them, it’s easy to capture the atmosphere of golden leaves, aromatic spices, and comfort. Add a couple of dry vine twigs or twist a gentle stem — and your composition will come alive, filling the space with quiet magic and the tender glow of autumn.

For the small pumpkin, you’ll need approximately 10g of yarn 330m / 361yds per 100g;

yarn 250m / 273yds per 100g;

For my pumpkins, I used following yarns:

• Wool & Silk by GAZZAL (20% silk / 80% Superwash Merino Wool, 50g – 330m / 361yds), color 11145 Pumpkin Spice
• Silk Mohair by Lana Gatto (75% Superkid Mohair / 25% silk, 50g – 424m / 464yds), color 14524 Ginger

You will need

• Double-pointed or circular needles size 2.0 mm, 3.0 mm, 4.0 mm (or other sizes as needed to achieve the correct gauge)
• A stitch marker to mark the beginning of the round (if you are using the Magic Loop method)
• Wool or polyester fiberfill for stuffing (I used natural sheep’s wool)
• Scissors and tapestry needle
• Twigs and tendrils from grapevines for decoration (you can also choose your own option for finishing and decorating the piece)
