These textured knit pumpkins are designed for beginners ready to experiment with stitch texture. They use only knit, purl, cast on and bind off techniques, but they need to be seamed together and you need to follow a pattern (sequence of knit and purl stitches that can change between the two rows).

The assembly of the pumpkins is shown with short videos embedded in the blog.

Instructions are provided for re-sizing the pumpkins.

The pattern was developed to use this yarn that my sister bought as a souvenir in Italy.
