Crochet Pumpkin Pie Pattern
This Crochet Pumpkin Pie Pattern is perfect for decorating for Thanksgiving! I LOVE to decorate for fall and when it gets to November I enjoy adding Thanksgiving-themed pieces to my autumn decor so I decided to come up with this crochet pumpkin pie pattern. This cute little Crochet Pumpkin Pie is going front and center for sure!
I think when you add eyes to any project, it makes you smile; plus, the cutsie eyes on this pumpkin pie give it an amigurimi look which is the popular crochet trend of making little stuffed creatures.
I used simple assembly techniques (yarn tails and yarn needle) to put this Crochet pumpkin pie pattern together along with a small piece of a common craft supply to help it keep it’s shape (you’ll see it in the supply list and photos below).

Crochet Pumpkin Pie – looks yummy enough to eat . . . almost!
The Crochet Pumpkin Pie pattern uses mostly single crochet stitches and a few double crochet stitches.
If you have visited my blog before, you’ll have noticed that I have really loved this particular velvet yarn by Yarn Bee from Hobby Lobby. The yarn color is called, “Pumpkin” – perfect name, don’t you think? (These FREE patterns use it too: Velvet Pumpkins, Velvet Headband and Velvet Coffee Cup Cozy)
I assure you this slice of crochet pumpkin pie won’t add to your waistline but it will add to the smiles you’ll get around your Thanksgiving table – so let’s get started!

Finishing/Assembly of the Crochet Pumpkin Pie Pattern:

Fold canvas and crocheted center section in half to create point at tip of pie piece
Sew Top Section on top matching up points
Optional: Cut tan felt so slightly smaller than Base Crust Section – sew or hot glue felt to Wrong Side of Crust Base (This gives stability to the base and helps seal in the polyfil)
Sew Crust Base on bottom matching up points and making sure end reaches to top of pie piece
Stuff inside with Fiber Fill and tuck all yarn tails inside
