The Ugly Gourds Trio is a set of three patterns that focus on the weirder shapes and textures of fall pumpkins. Each gourd uses different stitches, techniques, and assembly to create unique shapes and fabrics and are best for the intermediate or more advanced crocheter.

This pattern includes written instructions for each pumpkin and special stitches, as well as brief photo tutorials for finishing instructions. There will be a video tutorial resource added by Oct 2023 that is currently linked in the pattern.

These patterns use worsted weight and bulky weight yarn depending on the piece. You can substitute bulky weight yarn for worsted held triple. Yardage estimates and video tutorial for triple strand yarn pulls are included in the pattern.
