Fall is finally here, and these pumpkins arrived just in time!… and boy are they cute! Using the suggested yarn, these are a hand-held size, but change the yarn and you can go bigger or even smaller, depending on your preference.

These pumpkins make a perfect seasonal gift for friends and family. But once they see your finished work they’ll be asking for more every season. They’re just too cute not to!
