Ornamental Gourds Set 1 is an original crochet pattern by June Gilbank, including patterns for 3 realistic life-sized gourds: Goblin Eggs, Warty Pear, and Autumn Wings.

Yarn: worsted weight yarn in your choice of the following colours: orange, white, dark green, yellow, tan, light green; plus beige or brown for the stem and blossom end.

Hook: US E / 3.5mm

Additional Info: The no-sew patterns included in this set are arranged in order of increasing difficulty:

• For the most basic beginner-friendly gourd, try the Goblin Eggs gourds in solid and/or bi-colour versions.
• Once you’ve mastered that, you can advance to the Warty Pear gourd with its knobbly texture.
• Finally, move on to the stunning Autumn Wings gourd with its unique shape and built-in ridges.

(The pattern includes bonus appendices for both right- and left-handers that include full step-by-step photos to walk you through the special techniques.)

Size: approx 2.5-6” (6.5-15cm) tall, excluding stems.

Note: Take advantage of the savings when you buy this pattern as part of the Ornamental Gourds Sets 1 and 2 multipack!
