Introducing the Giant Crunchella Pumpkin - a whimsical, textured masterpiece that brings all the magic of a Cinderella fairytale to life!
Inspired by our popular Crunchella Crochet Pumpkin pattern, this giant version takes things up a notch, using multiple strands of DK yarn held together for a plush, squishy feel and a captivating texture. With its bold ridges and oversized design, it’s perfect for adding a touch of cozy charm to your fall décor, creating a stunning centerpiece, or crafting the perfect photo prop for your little pumpkins. Get ready to crochet your very own fairytale with this dreamy, textured pumpkin!
This giant crochet Pumpkin is a relatively quick and easy project, making it ideal for crocheters of all levels. With its charming design and customizable colours, this pumpkin is a versatile piece that can be adapted to match your personal style. Choose yarn from your stash and create a fairytale worthy masterpiece!
Size: My giant pumpkin measured 13in x 7in (33cm x 18cm), but you can make yours as large as you like!
It really just depends on the yarn you use and how many strands you hold together at a time.
You can adjust the height of your pumpkin by crocheting more rounds of the central textured section (make sure this is an odd number of rounds).
In this video tutorial, I will show you the basics of making this giant pumpkin, but you can watch a full length tutorial here: ua-cam.com/video/evqHCrZ7ejE/v-deo.html
You will need:
Yarn from your stash. I used Stylecraft Special DK, 100% Acrylic (100g/3.5oz, 295m/323yds) in different shades of orange, red, yellow and grey
I held 8 strands of DK yarn together at a time for the main pumpkin
For the stem, I used Caron Simply Soft, 100% Acrylic (170g/6oz, 288m/315yds) in Cool Green and Chocolate, holding 2 strands of each colour altogether
10.0mm Crochet Hook or hook needed for your yarn
A tapestry needle for working in ends
Scissors
Stuffing
Tension: 6 stitches and 6 rows over single crochet stitch = 4” / 10cm square.
However, tension is not important for this project. You will just end up with a slightly different sized pumpkin.

Very interesting. Thanks for this. I will try it on a current project.
That’s great. I hope it works well for you! 😀
Thank you for your tutorial on making a pumpkin. Blessings!
You are so welcome!
For those who had trouble understanding her accent, just click on the word “more” in the description below the video and open the transcript to read what she said. Basically, you chain an even number of stitches (she did 14), and start on the 3rd chain from the hook with a half double crochet, followed in the next stitch by a slip stitch and repeat to EOR. You should end the row with a slip. Turn the work. Chain two. Start row two with a half double crochet into the slip stitch from row one, followed by a slip stitch into the half double crochet from row one. Repeat across row. You should end with a slip stitch into the half double crochet that began row one. Turn, chain two, and repeat. Just remember to HDC into the previous row’s slip stitch and slip stitch into the previous row’s HDC, and you should be fine.
Thank you! I’m sorry my accent is hard to understand. I’m investing in some better tech and I might look into adding subtitles too if people find it tricky. 🧡
I could understand you but you never said what size hook you used.
I’m so sorry. I used a 5mm hook with a worsted weight yarn 🧶
I found it hard to understand all that was being said.
I’m really sorry about that
I’m sorry, but I had a really hard time understanding what you were saying.
Oh no I’m really sorry to hear that. You could maybe try with closed captions.
This is so beautiful ❤ Thank you for sharing this pattern!
Thank you, I’m so glad you liked it
🎀🧶🪡
Pretty lacey cardigan.
Thank you 😀

I think you should just do you. If you do get your nails done, you should do red ❤️
Thanks! That is a great answer. I do like having them done, but I’m not very good at looking after them and don’t like that they are brittle for ages afterwards too!
I love this!
Thanks! Hoping to get the pattern released in the next week or so!

Oh yes, definitely for adults too! I find it so calming!
