I love to crochet. In fact, I just finished crocheting a large afghan for our daughter for her birthday. I had some yarn leftover and I just thought it’d make the cutest little crocheted pumpkin. So, that’s exactly what I did.
You can find my crocheted pumpkin pattern here. But, I thought it’d also be nice to share with you some of the crocheted pumpkins I discovered. Now you can create a whole little pumpkin patch of crocheted pumpkins with different textures, styles, colors and looks!

So, I searched the web to see if there were some other or better ideas out there to crochet a pumpkin. I can’t attest to whether they’re better, but each one is crocheted a little differently from the version I made and shared with you above. Let’s take a look, shall we?!
