It’s Fall Y’all, Let’s Make the Crinkle Pumpkin free pattern

Crinkle Pumpkin Amigurumi free crochet pattern by DivineDebris.com

It’s Fall y’all! I mean, technically it is the first day of Fall here in the US and for me that means pumpkin pie, sweaters, cozy blankets, and Practical Magic on my tv. Oh, and of course my new Crinkle Pumpkin Amigurumi pattern on my blog today!

As many of you all might know, I love a good pumpkin! I have been making pumpkins for years, my first one was my Fun Fall Pumpkins ami from 2015! I’ve got the Big Ol’ one, a gingham one, and even some with stripes! Just lots of great pumpkins for you to pick. And I wanted to honor all the previous pumpkins so I made a fun and easy to customize design this month.

So this pattern is super easy and very textured, just a simple sc and dc alternating combo. It’s super easy to customize too. The big red one in the photos was made using Chroma Twist Bulky by WeCrochet and a the same crochet hook/stitch count, but I did add about 10 more rows for some extra height. Same thing with the white/gray pumpkin, I added a handful of rows just to see how it would turn out.

I do hope you like this pattern and give it a try. It’s got so much you can do to customize it (how great would this be as a stash buster with a bunch of different colors? Oh I’d love to see that!).

I hope where ever you are you’re having a great time and being safe and healthy. Hugs friends. Wash your hands and masks

Closing/Stuffing

Leaving off where you stopped, weave back and forth through every other stitch until you get all the way around row 16. Pull the piece of yarn until the center closes. You may need to weave your end through more than once, or even sew the hole closed. Flip your piece around, stuff the ami full and then weave back and forth through every other stitch until you get all the way around row 2 and pull the ends tight until the hole closes, you may need to sew it closed on this side too.

Creating the sections

Using another piece of yarn, attach it at the top of your pumpkin and run the yarn along the outside of your pumpkin and then securing it to the bottom of your pumpkin while pulling the yarn tight. Do this as many times as you’d like (5 times is shown in the photos) to create the sections on the outside of your pumpkin. You can also feed the needle through the center of the pumpkin and then run the yarn along the outside of the pumpkin, then back through the center.
Fasten off your yarn and weave in your ends.
