Smiling carved pumpkin with glowing eyes and a toothy grin, wearing a tilted purple witch hat with a band, on white.

Carved Pumpkin in Purple Witch Hat

Halloween & HorrorIntermediate11 coloursAbout 6 days of stitching (~8 hrs/day)

This carved pumpkin in a purple witch hat is a playful little character with a big toothy grin and glowing, warm orange eyes. The slightly crooked hat, with its soft band and curling brim, gives the design plenty of personality, while the rich orange tones of the pumpkin make it feel properly seasonal.

It suits anyone who enjoys a cute take on Halloween rather than a truly scary one, and it works nicely for stitchers who like to decorate their home as autumn arrives. Once finished, it looks lovely framed on a wall or shelf, and it would make a thoughtful gift for a friend who loves spooky season.

CXC and Sullivans skeins carry the DMC number, so the codes above cover them too.

These lengths include the thread lost to tails and travelling, so they are what to buy rather than what ends up on the fabric. A spare skein of your main colours is still worth having, because dye lots vary between batches and matching one part way through is the hard part.

HobbyTub also converts to Ariadna, CXC, Dimensions, Gamma, Luca-S, PNK Kirov, Sullivans and Unitas. Pick your brand when you start the project.
