Friday Five: 5 More Crocheted Pumpkins

 

Today is Friday, which means that in addition to today's Bewitching Bears pattern that will be released today, it is also time for another Friday Five- and with this one I mentioned a couple of weeks ago what the theme would be. Two weeks ago I shared 5 crocheted pumpkins and mentioned I would be doing a part 2 in a couple of weeks with 5 More Crocheted Pumpkins- so that is the theme for today.

It has been a while since I made a sewing project and I have been wanting to make something for fall. I have had this cute little bundle of fall fabrics for a while, each little rolled up piece of fabric is a fat eighth, and I knew it would be perfect for what I had in mind. Especially because I was going to be making pumpkins and it had lots of pretty oranges. 

Friday Five: 5 Crocheted Pumpkins

 

It is time for another Friday Five- and today I am going to do a fall theme that could be used for Halloween or Thanksgiving, or just general fall decorations. It is also going to be more than just one part because I have a lot more than 5. The theme for this week is going to be Crocheted Pumpkins!

One of my favorite fall crochet projects is crocheted pumpkins. I love making them with different stitches to give them interesting texture. It kind of gives me a sweater type vibe, cozy and perfect for cool fall days. I have lots of crocheted pumpkins on my blog and they use a variety of different stitches, some worked in rows and others in the round. Both ways are very simple and are easy to adjust to make different sizes.

It is finally fall, although it doesn't yet feel like it where I live, but that means it is time to start making all of the cold weather crochet projects. Hats, scarves, blankets, etc. Of all of those different projects hats are probably my favorite, although I do enjoy making all of them.

Although it is technically still summer I am very ready for fall. Once my kids head back to school I am ready to make that transition to all things pumpkins and fall leaves. And I wouldn't mind temperatures to match. I love fall, it is my favorite season of the year.

Lately I have been working on some sewing projects and I have discovered a love of precuts. I never used to use them, I think it felt like I was getting so little fabric when it was cut into 5" squares, or 10" squares, or strips, or whatever. But it sure is convenient to have all of that cutting done for you, and you get a variety of coordinating fabrics since it is typically a whole line. It is such a great way to get the fabric you need for a project like this one made entirely of charm squares (plus the binding fabric).

I love fall, it is my favorite season. I love the colors of the season, the cooler temperatures, the leaves, the holidays, all of it. There is just something magical about fall. School has started up and even though it is still technically summer for a while and the temperatures still feel like summer, I am ready to start thinking about fall.

This week fall will officially be here, and I am so happy about it. I have been loving the fact that temperatures have been cooling off a little bit and it has been starting to look and feel more and more like fall. However, in my craft room it has been fall for a while. I have been making lots of fall craft projects lately, and todays project is a continuation of that, although it could easily be adapted to work for any season or holiday, just change up the colors.

As I am sure anyone who has been following me for any length of time already knows, I love fall, I love pumpkins, and I love playing with the textures of crochet stitches. Put all of those together and one of my favorite things to crochet in the fall is pumpkins. I have lots of patterns already on my website, some using very basic stitches, and others that use stitches that create really interesting textures. And I am always thinking of new stitches that I think would be fun to try on a pumpkin.

It is time again for another Team Creative Crafts Collaboration, and not surprisingly the theme this month is pumpkins. I have been in a fall/pumpkin crafting mood lately so this was a perfect theme for me.

I am not a huge pumpkin fan when it comes to foods and/or drinks, but when it comes to fall decor I do love them. And with the arrival of September comes pumpkin season in my mind. One reason I like pumpkins is that they work so well from September through November. From general fall decor, through to Halloween, and Thanksgiving. 

Hello Fall Sign

I have a wooden sign that I bought several months ago without a specific project in mind. I had a few ideas but never ended up making any of them, so I ended up just having a blank wooden sign sitting around. I figured with a new season  just around the corner I would finally use that board.

As I was crocheting pumpkins this year I thought it would be fun to mix it up a little and make some that were 2 colors rather than 1. Most of the time I choose more muted shades or fall colors to make my pumpkins, but this time I decided to go with more of a Halloween theme, bright orange, black, and white.

Today I am excited to be sharing a new crochet pattern as part of the 3rd annual Halloween Crochet Along with CAL Central.  The crochet along started in August and goes through the end of September with a new Halloween themed pattern coming out each Monday and Thursday.

I love fall, and one of my favorite fall decorations to make is pumpkins. I have made a lot of pumpkin crafts over the years that include everything from crocheted pumpkins in several varieties, to painted or sewn pumpkins, and more.

Fall may not officially be here until later in September, but once the kids are in school and September hits I am ready for fall. And for me that means making fall projects and putting up fall decorations. I love fall, it is, and always has been my favorite season. The colors, the cool weather, everything about it, I just love it. Then the fall leads into the holiday season, which I also love, so everything about this time of the year is my favorite. 

Pick Your Own Pumpkin Bucket

This summer my mom picked up a couple of these square galvanized buckets for me on clearance thinking they would work well for a project. They are actually ice buckets/beverage dispenser stands, but really any similar sized pocket would work for this project, even a wooden box. Anyway, when she gave them to me I immediately knew what I wanted to do with one of them and I have been waiting for the right season to make it.

 Day 2 of my birthday week projects and giveaways is here, and it is a fall crochet project and a fall crochet giveaway as well. I love fall, it is my favorite season, and not just because my birthday is in the fall. I love the cooler temperatures, the holidays, the decorations, the smells, and I love the colors of fall.
