The diameter of each pumpkin is approximately 6.5cm (2½in) diameter.
The length of the garland is approximately 130cm (51¼in).
The leaf is approximately 6cm (2⅜in) long.

Each pumpkin takes a very small amount of yarn, ideal for using up oddments to create this colourful autumn garland.

The pumpkins are very simple to make, crocheted in continuous rounds and finished with a stem and basic embroidery to create the ribs. The finished pumpkins are attached to a crocheted chain with loops at each end for hanging.
The optional leaf and tendril involves various stitches to create the shape. The finished leaf is attached to the vine after completing the garland.

I used Ricorumi DK yarn. Each pumpkin uses approximately 14m (15⅓yd) and the optional leaves use approximately 5.25m (5¾yd) for each one.

Other materials you will need include:

• 2.5mm (UK12:US-) and 3.25mm (UK10:USD/3) crochet hooks
• blunt-ended yarn needle
• Toy stuffing
