Best Yarn and Colors for Crochet Pumpkins
For this project, yarns in a fall-themed palette will work fantastically, bringing a fall cozy atmosphere. Consider using warm shades of brown, orange, caramel, beige, or even grey.
The samples seen in the photos were made with two different yarns – Knit Picks Wool of the Andes Worsted and Knit Picks Wool of the Andes Worsted Tweed. These are medium-weight yarns with wool fiber content.

How Long Does It Take to Make One Crochet Pumpkin?
Crocheting these lovely pumpkin decorations won’t take long. Depending on the size, each pumpkin can be finished in 2-4 hours.
The pattern features a simple construction method that speeds up the whole creation process. Each pumpkin is worked flat in rows, then seamed and stuffed – and that’s it!
