Pumpkin Pixel Art – Free Crochet Pattern

October 6, 2017

This pattern first appeared on The Stitchin’ Mommy where I was a contributor.

Yay! This is the 10th post of the year for the 2017 GrannySpiration Challenge! I am so excited to see what everyone has been working on, especially you! At the end of this post, you will find the information for this month’s giveaway, and link up.

This Pumpkin Pixel Art is worked in the same manner as the Acorn Square Pixel Art that I shared last week with two round Solid Granny Squares and the Pull Loop Through (PLT) Join-As-You-Go method, however, worked in worsted weight yarn as opposed to lightweight yarn. It could be worked in any weight yarn you like though with respective hook.

Men’s Granny Square Scarf (Free Crochet Pattern) from Atelier Marie-Lucienne, Crocheted Turban (Crochet Inspiration with Pattern Link) from Mariam’s Creations, Grannies in the Window Cowl (Free Crochet Pattern) from Rhelena, Granny’s Stashbusting Tissue Box Cover (Free Crochet Pattern) from EyeLoveKnots (that’s me!), Crochet Night Light (Crochet Inspiration with Pattern Links) from Hakelfieber Austria and Granny Panel Blanket (Free Crochet Pattern) from Crochet is the Way.

Please make sure to stop by our other co-host and see what they’ve been working on too. In the image above, you’ll find their projects (and mine) from last month’s challenge.


Marjan from Atelier Marie-Lucienne
Sandra from Hakelfieber Austria (in German)
Jenny from Crochet is the Way
Rhelena from Crochet n Crafts
Mariam from Mariam’s Creations: Recycle and Create

Materials:
     – Worsted Weight Yarn – I used Hobby Lobby’s I Love This Yarn in Ivory 355 Yards (355 Yards), Terracotta (175 Yards), Burnt Pumpkin (175 Yards) and Small Amounts of Brown (for 1 Square) and Dark Green (for 3 Squares)
     – I9/5.5mm Crochet Hook
     – #18 Tapestry Needle for Weaving in Ends

Material Notes:
     Yarn Alternatives: Berroco’s Vintage Yarn, Red Heart’s With Love.

Time Spent:
     This square took me about 8 hours, 45 minutes worked in several seatings.

Measurements:
     27″ Square

Gauge:
     14 DC by 8 Rows = 4″

*Gauge for this project isn’t essential, as long as your squares are consistent in size. Keep in mind, smaller or larger squares will produce smaller or larger projects.

Abbreviations:
     – DC – Double Crochet
     – SC – Single Crochet
     – sc2tog – Single Crochet Two Together/Decrease
     – PLT – Pull Loop Through (Join)

       To PLT: After DC, pull up a loop, insert hook from front through the corresponding stitch on MB and pull loop through

Pattern Notes:
The beginning chain 5 counts as a double crochet plus a chain 3, and the beginning chain 2 counts as the first double crochet.

 

Join to the second chain of the beginning chain, not the first stitch, except in the border – here you’ll join to the first single crochet.

 

You may work this art piece with a variety of joining methods, but I joined mine using the Pull Loop Through Method, and this pattern will be written as such. If you choose to work all the squares first, and then sew them together, you will need: 19 in Burnt Pumpkin, 2 in Half Ivory and Half Burnt Pumpkin, 19 in Terracotta, 2 in Half Ivory and Half Terracotta, 1 in Brown, 1 in Green, 2 in Half Ivory and Half Green, and 35 in Ivory.

 

In the instructions, I refer to MA, MB and MD. These are the motifs. MA is the current motif you are working on. MB is the first one you join to, MC is skipped and MD is the second one you join to, which is diagonal from MB. I only refer to these motifs in the one and two join instructions.
I also mention MC in the bi-colored square instructions. Here, this refers to Main Color.
I highly recommend weaving in your ends as you complete each row, otherwise, at the end you could be left with so many ends, this square may end up in your WIPs bin, instead of being completed.


Pattern:

Work 1 complete 3” Solid Granny Square in Ivory.
    Chain 5. Join to form a ring. Chain 5, work (3 DC, chain 3) into the ring 3x, 2 DC into the ring and Join. (12 DC)

 

R2: Chain 2. Work (2 DC, chain 3, 2 DC) into the chain space, [DC into the next 3 DCs, (2 DC, chain 3, 2 DC) into the next chain space] 3x, DC into the next 2 DCs and Join. (28 DC)

 

Fasten Off, and Sew in Ends.

 

*This square will be the bottom right square of the piece.

 

Working with the Join-As-You-Go PLT Method, you will have squares that require one join, and squares that require two joins – these are described below.      

 

To Work Square with 1 Join:
    Chain 5. Join to form a ring. Chain 5, work (3 DC, chain 3) into the ring 3x, 2 DC into the ring and Join. (12 DC)

 

R2: Chain 2. Work 2 DC into the chain space, chain 1, working from behind SC into chain space of MB, chain 1, [(DC into chain space of MA, PLT) 2x, (DC into next stitch of MA, PLT) 3x, (DC into chain space of MA, PLT) 2x, chain 1, working from behind SC into chain space of MB, chain 1]; 2 DC into the same chain space, [DC into the next 3 DCs, (2 DC, chain 3, 2 DC) into the next chain space] 2x, DC into the last 2 DCs and Join, and Fasten Off. (28 DC)

 

Fasten Off, and Sew in Ends.

To Work Square with 2 Joins:
    Chain 5. Join to form a ring. Chain 5, work (3 DC, chain 3) into the ring 3x, 2 DC into the ring and Join. (12 DC)

 

R2: Chain 2. Work 2 DC into the chain space, chain 1, working from behind SC into chain space of MB, chain 1, [(DC into chain space of MA, PLT) 2x, (DC into next stitch of MA, PLT) 3x, (DC into chain space of MA, PLT) 2x, chain 1, working from behind SC into chain space of MD, chain 1];

[(DC into chain space of MA, PLT) 2x, (DC into next stitch of MA, PLT) 3x, (DC into chain space of MA, PLT) 2x, chain 1, working from behind SC into chain space of MD, chain 1];
2 DC into the same chain space, [DC into the next 3 DCs, (2 DC, chain 3, 2 DC) into the next chain space], DC into the last 2 DCs and Join, and Fasten Off. (28 DC)
Fasten Off, and Sew in Ends.

Following this chart, continue working solid granny squares and joining them as outlined above. I began with Row 1, and my first completed square being the square closest to the “R1”. The purple line shows that the second square worked (to the left of the 1st) only requires 1 join, as does the 3rd and so on in Row 1. Beginning in Row 2, you will start working with 2 joins. The first square worked of Row 2 (furthest right square) only requires 1 join to the 1st square of Row 1, but each square after requires 2 joins.
I worked from the furthest right square of each row all the way to the end of the row, and weaved in my ends at the end of each row.
Bi-colored squares are highlighted in the image. #11 and #17 are half Ivory and half Burnt Pumpkin, #56 and #62 are half Ivory and half Terracotta, and #65 and #67 are half Ivory and half Dark Green. Using the instructions below, work in your bi-colored squares. Take note that Round 1 of each of these is the same as the 3” Bi-Colored Solid Granny Square listed below, but Round 2 varies as they are worked to best suit working in the manner as I have outlined. If you are working them differently, you will need to adjust as best for you.
*I am including the pattern for the single bi-colored solid granny square. If you are working individual squares and using a different joining method, like a Single Crochet Join, then you will need to follow the single instructions to make your square. A photo tutorial can be found on my EyeLoveKnots blog, 3” Bi-Colored Solid Granny Square the EyeLoveKnots Way. Replace “MC” with the one you will be using.
3” Bi-Colored Solid Granny Square (See Note Above):
    With MC, Chain 5. Join to form a ring. Chain 2, 2 DC into the ring, chain 3, 3 DC into the ring, pull Ivory through, [holding Ivory over index finger and MC between middle finger and thumb, insert hook under MC to pull up a loop on hook, pull up Ivory over hook and complete chain.

To display my Pumpkin Pixel Art, I purchased a 36” x 36” cork board from Hobby Lobby, and hung from the chain spaces of the top row using some white thumb tacks from my local Dollar Tree. I chose this method because I wanted a way of displaying the piece without permanently attaching it, so I could take it down and change it out or use it in a different manner in the future.
For a more permanent thing, I think attaching it to a burlap covered canvas would also make for a really great piece, or to a large picture frame.

Please feel free to make and sell your own Pumpkin Pixel Art project using this pattern, but please DO NOT claim this pattern as your own nor should you sell my pattern, and DO NOT re-publish my photos as your own. DO NOT copy and paste my pattern anywhere, link to it instead.

    Your blanket is soo nice – I want to make a pixel blanket since I started to crochet, but I'm afraid of having to sew too many loose ends…
    And it matches perfectly with your acorn blanket! =)

    So I'm going to prepare my post for this month – also a blanket! =))
    Bye bye,
    Sandra

      This pumpkin was one that I waited until the very of the project to weave in all the ends, and boy was that a mistake! I highly recommend the pixel project as it is soooo fun! But definitely recommend weaving in the ends as you go or at least per row.

Welcome!

Welcome!

Hey! I'm Alexandra, the blogger and creator behind EyeLoveKnots and On Rockwood Lane! My passion is being creative. My favorite thing to do is crochet, and you will almost always find me having a cup of coffee and working on a new crochet project, but when I'm not doing that, you might find me out at a local park rollerblading, baking some fresh cookies, picking veggies in the garden or re-decorating for a new season or holiday. My two cats are great supervisors for all my adventures (minus the being outside because they think it's too hot in Florida to be anywhere but inside), and make sure I take plenty of breaks.
