Fall decor has never been faster with the Gourdgeous (gourds, get it?) Crochet Pumpkins. Any beginner can make these in no time, using only a crocheted rectangle sewn into a pumpkin shape. Each ball of recommended yarn makes 2 pumpkins. Customize the look by switching up colors, yarn thickness and hook size, or stem material.

MATERIALS
Approximately 50 yds Lion Brand Wool Ease Thick & Quick (1 full ball makes 2 pumpkins), or equivalent super bulky yarn
5 yds contrasting color yarn for stem
Size N13/9mm crochet hook
Polyester Fiberfill
Tapestry needle
Scissors

No gauge; finished pumpkin size depends on amount of stuffing. Sample pumpkin is 5in wide and 4in tall.
