Pumpkin Head Halloween Hat

This fun Halloween pumpkin hat knitting pattern is a fairly easy knit and comes in both kids’ and adult sizes, so you can make a pumpkin head for yourself or the little pumpkins in your life.

The hat is knitted flat on straight needles and uses simple shaping to create the round pumpkin shape. The knitted stem finishes off the top, while decorative chain stitches are added to separate the pumpkin sections and give the finished hat its fun, cartoon-like look.

This is a quick and enjoyable Halloween knitting project that makes a great costume accessory, but honestly, you don’t really need a costume. A pumpkin on your head is already making a pretty strong statement
