After finishing my months-long project that involved nothing but sc and puff stitches, I was itching for a new skill, so I tried my hand at mosaic crochet. I was thrilled at how it worked up. It’s like magic, and it looks so much more complicated than it actually is.
And I fell in love with this gorgeous fall-inspired colorway (oddly named “citrus punch”) and thought it would look perfect as a pumpkin. I really like how it turned out.
All finished! I added more white yarn to fill out the fringe and chopped it to 2", then cut & sanded a wooden skewer and crocheted over it and the top row at the same time. More citrus crush to hang it. I wanted to use a stick from my yard, but I didn’t have time to properly dry and prepare it and I was afraid it would get yucky in storage after pumpkin season is over. I gave it to my mother-in-law, who is visiting us right now and going home early tomorrow morning.
