Knit flat pumpkin hat

🎃 Knit Flat Pumpkin Baby Hat Knitting Pattern – 5 Sizes | Beginner Friendly

Create an adorable little pumpkin hat for autumn and Halloween with this beginner-friendly knitting pattern from MK Crafts UK.

Designed especially for knitters who prefer straight knitting needles, this pumpkin baby hat is worked completely flat before being joined with one simple back seam. There are no double-pointed needles and no knitting in the round required.

The textured design uses simple knit and purl stitches to create raised pumpkin sections and recessed grooves, giving the finished hat its lovely pumpkin shape. Gentle crown shaping creates the rounded top before a small green stalk is knitted directly from the remaining stitches.

The pattern includes five sizes, making it suitable from newborn through to toddler:

1. Newborn
2. 0–3 months
3. 3–6 months
4. 6–12 months
5. 1–2 years
