☀️ Hello, fall y’all!

What’s more fall than pumpkins? If you’re a pumpkin flavor hater, I forgive you. Even if pumpkin spice lattes aren’t your thing, this pillow is still a great make.

The Hello Pumpkin Pillow is a festive fall decor piece for any chair or couch, and for the pumpkin lovers, a fun way to show off that pumpkin pride.

✨ What makes it work

• Simple stitches. Worked bottom up in rows of single crochet, in two pieces.
• Colorwork your way. I used a mix of intarsia and carrying yarn across the back. Use what works best for you.
• Buttoned flap. The front panel has a buttonhole flap to secure the top.
• Burlap option. Use burlap instead of a crochet back if you like.

✂️ What you’ll need

• Yarn: Color Made Easy, Lion Brand. Colors shown: Alabaster (ivory, 2 skeins if crocheting the back), Kombucha (orange), Avocado (green), Mineral Yellow (yellow).
• Hook: H (5.0mm)
• Tools: Yarn Needle · Scissors
• To finish like the sample: 5 Buttons, 1 to 1.5 in (2.5 to 3.8 cm) · 20 x 20 in pillow insert · 3/4 yard burlap (optional)

⭐ Good to know

• Size: 21 in (53 cm) wide and 20 in (51 cm) tall, with some ease to fit over the pillow.
• Skill level: Easy to Advanced Beginner
• Gauge: 15 sts and 16 rows = 4” x 4” in single crochet with H hook. Stitch gauge matters more than row gauge. · gauge help
• Terms: US crochet
