A perfect pattern for autumn, a pumpkin could be any colour you like. This pumpkin is bigger than you palm andis perfect for people who like monotone working, even if not, isn't it good to sit in o cozy armchair and crochet a pumpkin for your home decoration? I suggest you use plush yarn, so it'll come out pretty big;) but if you don't want a huge vegetable, use acrylic yarn!
Good luck with the pattern! When you finish, please make a journal, do more people can see how the finished product looks like!
