Cimelio Pumpkins - Knit Pattern Only

DESCRIPTION
This pattern was inspired by my family’s traditions. So many of my patterns are inspired by my Italian roots but this pattern is a salute to my American upbringing and annual celebration of all things fall and Halloween. I fell in love with the heirloom pumpkin varieties as soon as they started to become available and I wanted to recreate those special pumpkins in a knitted pattern.

This set of patterns includes two types of pumpkins, a ribbed style and a bobble version. There are two sizes available in my pattern but can be easily modified to make whatever size you like.

SKILLS
This includes a beginner and an advanced beginner level knitting patterns. The pumpkins are knit in the round from the bottom up. The techniques involved are knit, purl, and make bobble. Instructions are given for creating the bobble stitch along with a link to my bobble video tutorial. All Frosia Knits patterns are written in standard US terms.
