Happy Pumpkins start as one simple rectangle – and end as cozy autumn decoration you will want to make again and again.
Crochet a rectangle in half double crochet in the back loop only, join the first and last row with a slip stitch seam, pull one end tight with the yarn tail, stuff the pumpkin and close the other end the same way.
Add a little stem, and your pumpkin is ready.
There is no 3D shaping and no increasing in the body, so it is a lovely first project for beginners.
