Project introduction
This is a pattern overview, not a complete crochet tutorial. The project is a small pumpkin applique, presented as a quick make with a stated completion time of 10 minutes and a yield of one applique. The source page includes a video and credits Painting It Purple for the original crochet pattern. Visit the project page and video for the source material and its reference to the original pattern. The DIY is credited to Anna.
Easy 10 Minute Crochet Pumpkin Applique
The applique is shown on a crochet coffee cozy and a baby beanie. The source also mentions an adult beanie as a possible place to use it. These examples give a sense of the project’s intended scale and use: it is a small decorative piece to add to a handmade accessory. The overview does not provide a separate attachment method, so follow the original source for any details about applying the finished piece.
The listed skills are chain stitch, slip stitch, single crochet, double crochet, and magic loop. These are the techniques named in the source, rather than a full explanation of how to work them. If any are unfamiliar, consult an appropriate stitch reference before starting.

The source also lists three seasonal ideas: Pumpkin Spice Peanut Butter Fudge, Pumpkin Spice Muddy Buddies, and Easy DIY Wooden Pumpkins. These are related recipe and craft suggestions, not additional crochet patterns, so they are separate from the applique project.
Easy 10 Minute Crochet Pumpkin Applique
The project card describes the applique as easy and gives a total time of 10 minutes. These are the source’s own project details, not an independently tested time estimate. It lists one pumpkin applique as the yield. Anna is credited with creating the DIY presentation, while Painting It Purple is credited as the source of the original crochet pattern. Keeping those credits distinct makes clear who is associated with the project presentation and where the original pattern is attributed.
Equipment
Gather the complete set of materials named in the source:
- One 4 mm crochet hook
- Orange yarn
- Green yarn
The source does not give yarn quantities. Stitch markers and a finishing needle are not included in its materials list, so they are not specified here.
Ingredients 1x2x3x
This heading repeats the project card’s materials list rather than adding a second set of supplies. The card names the same 4 mm hook and green and orange yarn, without giving quantities. Use the checklist above as the single materials reference for this overview.
Construction Overview
The source describes the project in two parts. The pumpkin body begins with a magic loop and is worked in the round using double crochet, with a single crochet also included in the shaping. The stitches are arranged to form the body, then the round is joined with a slip stitch. A green yarn detail is added for the leaf, followed by a short finishing section and tying off the yarn.
This summary intentionally does not reproduce the full sequence or stitch-by-stitch directions. The original instructions should be consulted for placement and order, especially for the shaping and leaf details. The source also names the relevant stitches and techniques above, but does not give gauge, finished measurements, or yarn amounts.
Notes
The source identifies Painting It Purple as the original pattern source and Anna as the creator of the DIY presentation. For further seasonal crochet ideas, see Fall Pumpkin Coaster Crochet Pattern and Bobble Crochet Pumpkin Pillow.
