The more different types of yarn you use, the more fun and “funky” your pumpkin will be. This is the perfect place to use that out-dated novelty yarn that’s been hiding at the bottom of your stash. Why not?

When I worked at a small local yarn shop, the shop owner asked us all to design pumpkins for our Halloween window display, so technically, this is the first pattern I ever wrote. I have tried to spruce it up, but I fear it still reads like a first pattern.
