🧾 Pattern Notes

This Pumpkin Crochet Headband is worked flat in rows, using single crochet (sc) as the base stitch and front post stitches (FPdc, FPtr) to create a beautiful textured crochet pattern with a cozy, cable-like look.

The front post stitches are made around the stitches two rows below, giving the fabric its signature raised and pumpkin-inspired texture that makes this crochet ear warmer pattern both stylish and warm.

Once you finish the main piece, simply seam the short ends together to form the headband. You can use mattress seam for a neat and professional finish.

All stitches are written in US crochet terms.
This pattern is perfect for intermediate crocheters who love textured, fall-inspired crochet projects.
