How To Make A Crochet Pumpkin With Witch Hat

Are you ready to kick your fall and Halloween crochet decor up a notch? This fun project combines two of my new seasonal patterns – The Witch Hat Garland and The One Stitch Adjustable Pumpkin – to create a spooky, yet charming Crochet Pumpkin With Witch Hat!

This advanced beginner pattern works up quickly, making it perfect for adding a handmade touch to your autumn decor.

Whether you style it as a centerpiece, tuck it into your mantel display, or use it for market prep, this little pumpkin witch is sure to bring a spooky touch to your Halloween decor this season.

Both the hat and pumpkin are crocheted with super bulky yarn, which means they work up quickly and have a cozy, chunky look.

With so many options for colors, textures, and embellishments, you can customize your design with a warm rustic touch or spooky Halloween vibe.

So, grab your yarn, hook, and supplies and let’s get started!

Two Patterns In One Project

One of my favorite things about this Crochet Witch Hat Garland Pattern is that it’s actually created by combining two of my existing patterns.

The base pumpkin is made using size small of my One Stitch Adjustable Pumpkin Pattern, which is a quick and advanced beginner friendly design that gives you a perfect pumpkin every time!

For the hat, I used my Crochet Witch Hat Garland Pattern, which works beautifully on its own as festive Halloween garland, but also makes the perfect accessory when paired with the pumpkin.

By bringing these two patterns together, you get an entirely new project – a whimsical pumpkin witch that can be customized in endless ways.


How To Style Your Crochet Pumpkin With Witch Hat

Below is an example of how I styled the Crochet Pumpkin With Witch Hat.

This little pumpkin can be tucked onto a shelf, nestled into a fall mantel arrangement, or added to a decorative tray alongside candles and other seasonal decor.

You can mix and match it with other pumpkins, garlands, or Halloween accents to create a cozy, handmade touch of fall anywhere in your home.

Yarn Suggestions For The Crochet Pumpkin With Witch Hat

The Crochet Pumpkin With Witch Hat is crocheted with Lion Brand Wool-Ease Thick & Quick. This is a size 6, super bulky yarn. The colors shown are Black and Spice.

Below are additional suppliers I recommend:

Lion Brand Yarn
Amazon

Yarn Alternatives

Feel free to experiment with different size 6 yarns or two strands of size 5 yarn held together. Please note the gauge may turn out slightly smaller or larger depending on the yarn you use.

If you change the yarn size of the project, be sure to adjust your hook size accordingly; you don’t want large gaps in your hat or pumpkin.


Embellishments For The Crochet Pumpkin With Witch Hat

Get creative with your embellishments!

For the specific Crochet Pumpkin With Witch Hat shown below, I used a mix of ribbons and seasonal floral picks. You can easily snip the individual flowers and leaves off larger picks with wire cutters, and then attach them with hot glue.

Most of the embellishments I used are from Michaels, but you can find similar options at most craft stores or online at Amazon, Walmart, Michael’s, etc. You can shop my LTK affiliate link here.

– The vegan leather leaves and wooden tags (shown below) are from Savlabot on Etsy. I wrote a full blog post all about the different crochet tags I use. The full post can be found here.
