This pumpkin box is crocheted of very fine cotton yarn. Its diameter is about 4 inches.

Using a thicker yarn will result in a larger box. I think using chunky yarn will create a large crochet basket.

To make this pumpkin, you need:

Orange yarn (I used Coco Vita Cotton yarn, 100 % cotton, 240 m / 50g);

Green yarn;

Crochet hook 1.5 mm;

Hollow fiber stuffing;

Sewing needle;

Safety pins or markers;

Scissors.

Abbreviated terms used:

MR – magic ring

ch – chain stitch

sc – single crochet

inc – increase (2 sc in one stitch)

dec – decrease sc (2 sc together)

ss – slipped stitch

st – stitch

This pattern is at an easy/intermediate level. Previous crochet experience is recommended. You need to know how to single crochet and slipped stitch in the round and in straight and back rows, increase, decrease. You need to know how to work basic crochet stitches.

Pattern includes 10 pages of detailed instruction in English and color photos of the work-in-progress and finished product to help guide you along.
