 Ombre Pumpkin 

Crochet Pattern
  By Sara Sach of Posh Pooch Designs

When I saw This Mandala Ombre Yarn Cake From

 Lion Brand Yarn.  I just

 had to have it, so I bought 2 of them.

I decided that it is perfect to design a new pumpkin

 crochet pattern. It stitched up so pretty.

 I love The way the colors move from

 pinks to oranges.

I Love That my pumpkin design is not the traditional 

style or even colors. It's fun and unusual.

Any medium (4) yarn will work for this pattern.

 There are many colorways  from Mandala yarn

 to Red Heart Ombres that would look so lovely

 with this pattern.

I am really looking forward to seeing your pumpkins,

 and what colors you used.
