10 Adorable Crochet Pumpkin Patterns to Try This Fall
Crochet pumpkins are a simple and charming way to bring cozy fall vibes into your home. I love how they add texture and color to any space, whether you use them as decorations for Halloween, Thanksgiving, or just to brighten up your room. Plus, they’re perfect for all skill levels, so you don’t have to be an expert to create something beautiful.
What makes crochet pumpkins so appealing is that you can make them in any size, color, or yarn type, giving you full creative freedom while keeping the process easy and enjoyable. I’ve found that following a free pattern or video tutorial can make the project even more fun and accessible, especially if you want quick results or a new beginner-friendly craft.
If you’re looking for a fall project that’s both budget-friendly and customizable, crochet pumpkins fit the bill perfectly. They’re a great way to practice your stitches and make something festive without spending hours or using complicated techniques.

Bobble Stitch Pumpkins
Here is an adorable crochet pumpkin pattern that is made by doing rows of bobble stitches alternated with Bible stitch rows and single crochet stitches. The pattern includes two different sizes, but it is easy to customize the size YOU want.
Simple Ribbed Crochet Pumpkin
If you are brand new to crocheting, try the Simple Ribbed Crochet Pumpkin. Creating a ribbed look is easy; it requires learning how to single crochet in the back loop ONLY. This creates the “ribbed” look.” It’s easy to adjust this pattern to make various-sized pumpkins to place throughout your home.
Crochet Rustic Farmhouse Pumpkins
Here is another option if you like the ribbed crochet look. Instead of single crochet stitches, this pattern uses the half-double crochet stitch in the third loop. This stitch takes a bit of concentration at first, so I suggest it if you have a bit of experience under your belt.
Realistic Pumpkin Crochet Pattern
If you want a bit more of a “realistic” design for a crochet pumpkin, this pattern may be right up your alley. You even get to crochet the stem with green yarn, rather than use a cinnamon stick.
Not-So-Knit Crochet Pumpkin
Do you LOVE the look of knitted items but have NO idea how to knit? This crochet pumpkin pattern is for YOU! It is an intermediate-recommended pattern, worked in the round, using the waistcoat stitch. You create a pumpkin that LOOKS knitted, but it’s actually crocheted – ADORABLE!

Crochet Pumpkin Pillow
Here is a fun idea – make a crochet Pumpkin Pillow! The pattern uses a ribbed crochet stitch, created by working rows of half-double crochet. Later, you sew it together to create the pillow form.

Braided Crochet Pumpkin
This braided crochet pumpkin pattern uses a woven design to create a fabric that looks like braids of wheat. The pattern uses the feather stitch, adding depth and sturdiness to the pumpkin. A feather stitch is almost like working three join puff stitches together. Since there is a bit of complexity, I would suggest this pattern for someone with a bit more intermediate crochet skills.
Autumn Velvet Pumpkin Pattern
