Notes

Basic Stitches You'll Use
Chain Stitch (ch)
This is the foundation of most crochet projects. It's a simple loop that you'll build upon.
Single Crochet (sc)
A basic stitch that creates a tight, sturdy fabric.
Back Loop Only (BLO)
To create ridges and give your coaster that classic pumpkin look.
Half Double Crochet (hdc)
Gradually increasing the height of the row gives the pumpkin its shape.
Double Crochet (dc)
A taller stitch that works up quickly and gives the pumpkin its shape.
Slip Stitch (sl st)
A stitch to join rounds or move from one part of the project to another without adding height.
