Create the Stacked Pumpkin Centerpiece by Lindsey Dale and place it beautifully in the center of your table for a charming autumn touch. The crochet pattern provides instructions for three differently-sized pumpkins that look fabulous when stacked one on top of the other, making a great home decor idea for the season.
Tools for Your Seasonal Masterpiece
To craft this crochet pumpkin centerpiece, you’ll need yarn in Aran weight, for example, Red Heart Super Saver, and a 5 mm crochet hook.
You can also use any other yarn you like. With bulkier weights, you will produce more oversized pumpkins. However, if you want your pumpkins to be stacked easily one on another, make sure that they are all made with yarn of the same weight.
Crocheting the Perfect Pumpkin Trio
The Stacked Pumpkin Centerpiece pattern will suit those with basic experience because pumpkins are formed from simple rectangles. At this point, you will crochet up a rectangle, gather it up, and sew it into a pumpkin shape to add dimension to your piece.
For this project, you will use basic stitches like the half double crochet and single crochet, worked in back loops only for that classic ribbing effect of a pumpkin.
How to Style Your Crochet Pumpkin Centerpiece
You can make different enhancements to your crochet pumpkins. For example, the sunflowers or other autumn blooms would liven the entire arrangement. Be also sure to play with various embellishments, ready-made or crafted from yarn, such as wine tendrils, stems, or leaves.
