Free crochet pumpkin pattern, amigurumi pattern for Halloween

Have you already made pumpkins for Halloween? :)


I want to share with you my easy and detailed free pumpkin pattern.

Crocheted amigurumi sheep

I have just finished crocheting 20 fluffy sheep in headphones. I love to work with big orders. It is possible to crochet a lot of bodies, then heads... and last night... last sewings... and at once 20 different creatures are looking at you from the desk! :)

A lot of photos:

How I create new toys

… or a story how I didn't want to crochet for Halloween… and had to finish a Pumpkin box…

As a matter of fact I wanted to crochet so many things and all of them right now J The Halloween bright colors are so inspiring! Orange with green pumpkins, violet hats, black and orange contrasts. And that’s why I couldn’t start doing anything.

Besides I had a half done pumpkin box that I had postponed till next Halloween a year ago. So I was sure that I should start designing for Halloweens with finishing this Pumpkin…

I hate all these “must” and “should” in designing! That’s why I started something that had nothing at all to do with Halloween. I renewed Swiper the Fox pattern! Crocheted a new toy, taking new step by step photos…

I got a nice pattern J that’s true

But who needs Swiper the Fox from Dora the Explorer cartoon without its main character Dora?

Unfinished Pumpkin box still continued to refuse to become finished …

But Dora Doll was designed in one breath:

To check out the pattern I had to crochet another Dora from it… But it was a little boring and not inspiring at all… So I did the Dora doll in Pumpkin outfit. Changed the head size, eyes, made it a little higher but sill checked out the Dora pattern!

It would be great…  but my husband told that it is too fat to be a pretty girl :(

I am still sure that not every doll should be thin like a Barbie especially if it is a pumpkin!

But! I have already had another doll idea in my mind that demanded to be embodied as soon as possible!

And in two afternoons I had already had a slim Pumpkin Girl!

 And it also needed to be checked out… And to do it I needed to crochet it one more time… And my Dora still needed Monkey the Boots design. And I still had my unfinished pumpkin box which whereabouts was a complete mystery to me.

So. I decided at least to find it.   And guess what? I had found! But not the half crocheted pumpkin but an almost finished penguin!  Here I must say my penguins with big eyes are my favorites! So I got him! Halloween Penguin!

And it still doesn’t look much like the pumpkin box that should be finished

But! I already have a wonderful cauldron, witch hat, broom and a great idea how to check out the Pumpkin Girl pattern without making another pumpkin!

And Now I have a bunch of new patterns and one half done Pumpkin Box once again put off till the next Halloween.

Here I create my toys!
