First let’s get the obvious out of the way: yarn is perfect for creating spooky spider web decorations. All you need for that is yarn and some tape. It’s a great idea for the home or the office. You can use black yarn on white walls for a strong contrast although that’s merely one of the many options.

We also love these chunky crocheted pumpkins featured on mamainastitch. They’re made using a large hook and super bulky yarn. They have a lovely rustic look and they’re actually easy to craft, even for a beginner. You can make them in different colors and sizes and display them around your house throughout the fall season.

These halloween pumpkins featured on girllovesglam are both cute and spooky and we really love that about them. Surprise surprise… they’re made with yarn. First you spray paint your faux pumpkins black, then you glue a bunch of googly eyes on them and then you wrap yarn around them in a random pattern.

The sisal pumpkins featured on thenavagepatch are pretty cute too but in a more… simple way. To make them you need sisal twine, thin craft wire, pipe insulator or foam tubing, a hot glue gun, small twigs and scissors. You can paint them if you want to or you can use colored string to give them more character.

You know what else might look cool? String art on pumpkins. You use real pumpkins or the faux kind, whatever you prefer as long as you’re happy with the result. In addition to that you also need a bunch of small nails, embroidery floss and some paper and tape so you can draw the pattern first. Check out mottesblog for more details.

For this particular project, you need to be comfortable using crochet and have some experience because what you need to do is crochet covers for your pumpkins. It’s definitely not a very fast or easy project and you won’t be able to reuse these pumpkin covers since they’re made to fit each individual pumpkin. Check out flaxandtwine for details.

It’s not just pumpkins that look cute. Gourds are actually quite adorable. You can cover them all in yarn and make them look even cuter. Start from the bottom. Add a dab of glue and start wrapping yarn creating a spiral, then continue wrapping yarn around the gourd until it’s covered up completely. Check out linesacross for more details.

Orange yarn balls kind of look like pumpkins already so it would be very easy to use that in your favor. Go ahead and stuff a pinecone into the top of a yarn ball and that’s pretty much all you need to do. Winding the yarn into a ball (if it’s not done already) is the most time-consuming part of this project. This cool idea comes from diyshowoff.
