Daisy Gray Knits designed this simple baby blanket knitting pattern with columns of Stockinette broken up by Garter Stitch with a Moss Stitch edging. It comes out about 20 by 30 inches.

The Snuggle Time baby blanket from Leelee Knits is super cute and simple, with columns of Stockinette and ridges of Garter Stitch that look sort of like bamboo. It comes out to 27 by 32 inches.

This sweet blanket from Petit Mouton Francais alternates plain blocks with ones with simple heart shapes worked in Reverse Stockinette. The blanket is worked in one piece with a textured stitch edging and measures 23.6″ x 31.5″.

Alternating block of different stitch patterns add texture but not difficulty to this baby blanket knitting pattern from belovedLT. It comes in three sizes, from 22 by 28 to 35 by 43.

Lots of fun stitch patterns combine in this simple blanket that can also be made throw sized by PURE by Linda Whaley. There are square and rectangular versions sized for babies, as well as a throw blanket and a large sofa blanket.

Throw some stripes into simple knits and purls to make a basic baby blanket that doesn’t look that simple. This one from Candy Lou Creations uses seven colors but it’s meant to be a stash buster so you can use as many or as few as you like. As written its 22 by 28 inches but it would be very easy to alter.

Over the years I have shared a lot of pumpkin knitting patterns, and I’ve knit and crocheted a lot of pumpkins myself. But it feels like there are always more fun things to try with knit pumpkins, so this year I wanted to look a little more beyond basic stockinette or ribbed pumpkins and share some pumpkin patterns with cables, bobbles and colorwork.

In the cable collection we’ve got these cute little basic cable and ribbed pumpkins from Elly Bear Knits. There are two sizes that make a wide, flat pumpkin and a taller round pumpkin. Both are worked in the round as a tube that’s cinched top and bottom when you’re done, and they use bulky weight yarn.

Another cute cable pumpkin knitting pattern comes from Gray Bear Akswokrat. This one is knit flat and it looks like a chunky yarn but you could use other weights to make pumpkins of different sizes. This one also has an I-cord stem and uses yarn to cinch up the sections of the pumpkin, giving it a more natural look.

Add some bobbles to your pumpkins with this design from Autumn Shelter Makes. Also worked in the round in a tube, it features a repeating pattern of bobbles and uses yarn wrapped around the outside to make segments. This one looks like worsted weight yarn to me.

Of course there’s nothing that says your pumpkin has to be a single color, so let’s throw in some colorwork. I love the look of the Cozy Fall Pumpkin knitting pattern from South Stitch Girls. The little leather loop adds a rustic touch but you could also just add a stick. These pumpkins have five colorwork options and are worked in worsted weight yarn in the round.

There’s also the Autumn Fair Isle Trio pumpkins pattern from Equestriann Style, which has three different sizes of pumpkins with four colorwork designs. They are worked in super bulky yarn in the round and look good with high contrast or more muted color combinations.
