Knitted Pumpkins
You can knit up a pumpkin in any yarn you like! Join Mary Carol for the easy knitting (knit 9, purl 1) of a tube. And then the fun begins! Mary Carol will guide you through pumpkin construction with your long tapestry needle. And she'll even bring some twigs, stuffing, and buttons to complete your pumpkin.
FYI - The pattern designer used 186 yards of fingering weight yarn and US 1.5 needles) to make a pumpkin 3.25" wide by 2" tall. If you would like a bigger pumpkin, get yourself some heavier yarn!
P.S. The orange variegated pumpkin in the picture above is a Knitted Wit DK Gem in color: Great Pumpkin. Shoppe here!
