1. Napkin Ring Band

Worked flat in warm cream, this ribbed band forms the stretchy base of the napkin ring.

• Row 1: 35 ch [35]
• Row 2: sk, 34 sc [34]
• Rows 3–7: sc in each stitch across [34]

1. Fasten off, leaving a long tail for seaming.

2. Pumpkin Appliqué

A small, 3D pumpkin worked in the round using dusty rose yarn.

• Round 1: 6 sc in a magic ring [6]
• Round 2: inc × 6 [12]
• Round 3: (sc, inc) × 6 [18]
• Round 4: (2 sc, inc) × 6 [24]
• Round 5: sc in each stitch around [24]
• Round 6: (2 sc, dec) × 6 [18]
• Round 7: (sc, dec) × 6 [12]
• Round 8: dec × 6 [6] — Stuff lightly with polyester filling.

1. Fasten off, leaving a tail to weave through the final 6 stitches to close the hole.

3. Stem and Leaf

Tiny sage green accents to complete the pumpkin look.

• Row 1: 5 ch [5]
• Row 2: sk, 4 sc [4]

1. Fasten off. Repeat the exact same rows for the leaf, but start with a foundation chain of 6 and work 5 sc in the second row.

4. WithMe signature heart

The same little heart sits on every WithMe original — our way of signing it with love. Use any contrast colour from the project.

• Round 1: 3 tr, 3 dc, ch, tr, ch, 3 dc, 3 tr in a magic ring [15] — Ch 3 first (it doesn't count as a stitch). After the last stitch, ch 3 and sl st into the ring, then pull the ring tight — the dip at the top of the heart forms as you pull.

1. Fasten off, leaving a tail for sewing the heart in place.

Finishing

1. Weave in all ends.
2. Sew the pumpkin appliqué onto the center of the napkin ring band.
3. Sew the stem and leaf to the top of the pumpkin.
4. Sew the WithMe signature heart in blush yarn to the center front of the pumpkin.
5. Seam the short ends of the napkin ring band together to form a circle, ensuring the pumpkin sits upright.

Tips from the WithMe studio

• Use a smaller hook for the appliqué to keep the fabric tight and prevent stuffing from showing.
• Pin the pumpkin to the band before sewing to ensure it is perfectly centered.
