Stackable Pumpkins
These Stackable Pumpkins are a great way to decorate your house for fall! They have visually interesting texture and can be made in any color to compliment any decor. I even made some with velvet yarn…ooh la la they were so soft and divine! You can also choose not to stack them and have individual pumpkins.
They can be made with any yarn by adjusting the hook size you use, you simply need to remember to use a hook that is 1.5mm smaller than the yarn calls for. I found they were pretty easy to complete in a short amount of time.
The pumpkins are made flat, seamed using a method that is virtually invisible, then cinched together at both ends and shaped.
