Pumpkin Granny Square Crochet Pattern PDF | Fall Motif for Blankets & Afghans, 8.5 in, US Terms

🎃 Pumpkin Granny Square — PDF Crochet Pattern
Finished square 8.5 × 8.5 in / 21.5 × 21.5 cm • 4.0 mm hook • Worsted weight • Written in US crochet terms • Easy intermediate

The pumpkin is not printed on the square and it is not embroidered on it — it is a separate crocheted piece with raised ribs, made on its own and stitched down, with a stem, a layered leaf and a curled vine added on top. That is why it has real depth, and why the square still lies perfectly flat underneath.

Everything you need to plan the project is in the file: gauge, finished measurements, verified stitch counts round by round, yarn quantities, blocking instructions and eight step-by-step visuals.
