Get into the cozy spirit of fall with this knitted pumpkin tutorial from Hundred Acre Wool. These adorable pumpkins are worked in the round on circular needles, making them a relaxing project that’s perfect for autumn. Using US size 9 (5.5 mm) needles, you can knit them in anything from worsted weight yarn for smaller pumpkins to super bulky yarn for oversized decor. Keeping a snug gauge ensures your stuffing stays hidden for a neat, plump finish. Once stuffed, you can use scrap yarn to cinch and form the classic pumpkin ridges, giving them that realistic look we all love. Finish them off with a rustic cinnamon stick or a knitted stem for extra charm!
Customize colors, sizes, and textures to match your home decor. These versatile pumpkins look beautiful on mantels, tables, or as handmade gifts. A simple yet stylish knit for fall!
