Pumpkin Beanie Hat Crochet Pattern | Posh Pooch Designs

 Pumpkin Beanie Hat Crochet Pattern
 By Sara Sach of Posh Pooch Designs

The Pumpkin Beanie Hat is the updated Version of the

 Silly Pumpkin Hat

I decided to update the Crochet Pattern and 

add lot's of new pictures and a brand new video.

The beanie pumpkin Hat is designed using Bulky (5) yarn.

I used I Love This Chunky yarn From Hobby Lobby,

 / spice for the orange and spruce for the green.

I really love how the new version turned out, 

but I still love the old one as well.

We Will be adding a new Video For the Face features,

 as well. So be watching for that.

This Crochet Pattern is Considered Easy to Moderate,

 but not beginner because of the 

Front Post stitches. And It's a great way to learn

 Front Post stitches.

3 Little Pumpkins Crochet Pattern | Posh Pooch Designs

3 Little Pumpkins Crochet Pattern
By Sara Sach of Posh Pooch Designs

Fall is the time for Pumpkin everything!

I originally wanted to make toys for my pooches.

Then I saw them sitting on my table

 and thought they were adorable for fall decorating.

The Pattern has 3 sizes so you can  choose what size you want to make. Or make all three for a table decoration.

Than I decided to make a bigger one!

I used 15 Oz. of Bernat Blanket yarn and 

an N/10.00 MM Crochet Hook. And Bunch of Stuffing!

I Topped it with a stick from my yard, 

and some brown thick yarn for a bow. 

I Followed The Pattern For the Large Pumpkin.

It turned out huge and fabulous!

It measure 40 inches around.
