How to make a Simple Crochet Pumpkin Garland
- Make Multiple Pumpkins: Follow the free crochet pumpkin pattern above and create as many pumpkins as you’d like. Vary the shades of orange for added interest. (I made 5)
- Create the Garland Stringand Attach Pumpkins as you GO
- Chain 40 in GREEN, holding the pumpkin to the chain slip stitch pulling through your yarn to join together,
- Pumpkin stem: *chain 8, slst back into the same space as step before, Chain 8, slip stitch back into the Same space as BEFORE.* and Repeat along from * to * until ALL of your pumpkins are attached and have stems
- Option 2: or you can use a sturdy ribbon or thin rope and attach pumpkins to it.
- Adding the Faces – You can either cut out some Black card like I did or you can sew the features on with black yarn, or leave blank
- Hang and Enjoy: Drape your garland on your mantle, across a window, or on a wall to celebrate the season.
