Handmade pumpkins are in full force.
So many different colours, textures, sizes...the maker world is so creative.
I wanted to add two more quick crochet pumpkin patterns that you can keep on display well into November and December.
(If you're still in Halloween mode: check out my funky crochet pumpkins made with cotton yarn in Checkered and Leopard Print - with graphs included!)
I was inspired by this BRAND NEW YARN just launched from WeCrochet.
The cool light blue colour and gorgeous dark red really gave me
a cozy Winter vibe.

Kindred is a light worsted yarn that is 68% Alpaca and 32% Peruvian Pima Cotton.
It's very fluffy and oh so soft. It works well with a loose or tight gauge and perfect for someone with wool allergies.
The cotton dyes at a slightly lighter colour than the alpaca which gives it a light marled look with the perfect drape.
It's available now in 11 colours - grab them before they're gone!

Now to these easy Winter Crochet Pumpkins!
Notes before you begin:
-you can make these in any size you'd like, just adjust the initial chain to more for a bigger pumpkin, or less for a smaller pumpkin.
-this yarn is so soft and has a nice stretch, so make sure to fill it with a ton of poly fil to make it extra plump
-I used a cinnamon stick for the stem (I love the smell!), you can use anything you'd like for the stem
-when you are wrapping your yarn around the pumpkin to finish it off, make sure to do it evenly, 3 times around, or 4 times around...you decide.
