Rockford Crochet Pumpkin Pattern

Rockford Crochet Pumpkin Pattern

Stitch up a show stopping trio of mosaic crochet pumpkins in 3 sizes, an eclectic, boho-toned fall decor piece that stacks into a mantle-ready centerpiece or makes a standout handmade gift, using a striking overlay colorwork technique with a full video tutorial and stitch chart to guide you through every step.

✨ Features

• 3 sizes in one pattern — make one accent pumpkin or stack small, medium, and large for a full tiered display
• Genuine mosaic (overlay) crochet colorwork, no picture-perfect chart-memorizing required
• Video tutorial + full stitch diagram included, so you've got backup at every specialty stitch
• A striking, boho-toned alternative to the usual farmhouse pumpkin, perfect for eclectic fall tablescapes, mantles, or a handmade hostess/Thanksgiving gift
• Ends hide inside the stuffed pumpkin, so there's no weaving in required
• One ball each of 4 colors, with 3 ready-made colorway options included

🧵 How It's Made

Each pumpkin starts as a flat mosaic strip, worked back and forth using foundation single crochet, stacked double crochet, and standing half double crochet, with color changes that build the layered mosaic motif as you go. Once the strip is finished, it's whipstitched into a tube, edged and gathered at both the top and bottom, and stuffed to shape. A quick cinching stitch through the Color A rows adds definition between the pumpkin's segments, and an optional cinnamon stick or wooden dowel through the center finishes the look.

💖 Why You'll Love It

There's something deeply satisfying about watching a mosaic pattern reveal itself as you work, without the strand-juggling or chart-reading stress of traditional colorwork. This is the kind of project that makes you feel like a crochet pro the moment you turn it right side out, and the boho, jewel-toned finished look stands out from the usual farmhouse fall decor crowd.

📏 Sizing

This pattern includes three sizes in one purchase: Small (13" circumference by 4" tall), Medium (16¼" circumference by 5" tall), and Large (19½" circumference by 6" tall). Make one size for a quick accent piece, or all three for the stacked pumpkin topper look shown in the photos, perfect for gifting a full set or building your own tiered centerpiece.
