Hello everyone! I'm glad to share with you a free beginner friendly Autumn themed crochet pattern. I wanted to create something for the season and decided a cute little pumpkin with a vine would be perfect! I have made a few of these now and they've just turned out perfect. I also made an in depth video tutorial on my YouTube if you'd like to follow along with a visual guide. If you're here from my video, then thank you for the support!
If you make one of these pumpkins, be sure to send me a picture on my instagram @taylor.peach
