Pumpkin Palooza Blog Hop 2022
Fall is here again and so is the Pumpkin Palooza Blog Hop! This is my second year hosting this event and I’m excited to share another round of crochet pumpkin patterns with you.

About the Pumpkin Palooza Blog Hop
Never heard of a blog hop before? Here’s how it works…
A blog hop is an event that is put together by a group of bloggers, in this case crochet bloggers. The host (that’s me or Sarah!) will have a coupon code available each day with a link to that day’s featured designers blog. Your job as a participant in the hop is to copy that code and click over to the designers blog. Once you get there, the designer will have a link to take you directly to the pattern in their shop. Scroll until you find that special button and then click it!
Now you have everything you need to grab a free pattern from that days featured designer. You can start again with at the host site each day with a new featured designer.
Why All the “Hopping?”
Why, you might ask? Now that’s the fun of a blog hop…everyone wins! You, as the participant in the event, get as many free patterns as you care to “hop” for. And us, as the host/designers, get some extra traffic and exposure on our websites. So if you stumble upon a site or designer you love, don’t be afraid to sign up for their newsletter or check out their other patterns…that’s the whole point! Well, that and some awesome freebies.
This Month’s Pumpkin Palooza Crochet-A-Long
Once the blog hop has come to an end, join us for a “Pick-Your-Pumpkin Crochet-a-Long” for the last week of September! The idea behind this Crochet-a-Long is that you can make whatever pattern you’d like, so long as its a pumpkin (gourds are cool too)! If you join the blog hop, you have plenty of pumpkin crochet patterns to choose from.
Once you make your pumpkin, share it! You can share on Instagram using hashtag #PPPumpkinPalooza22 and tag @pineapple.and.pine. Or share in our Facebook group.
Need to shop some yarn? WeCrochet and Lion Brand are a couple of my favorite places to source yarn.

I’ve found that my regular email list doesn’t care much for daily emails. 😂😉
Thank you!
Something is not working here! Best check all those links….. it ain’t workin’!!
Hi Pat! I checked all the links last night before and after updating. Is there a specific link that’s not working for you?
Hi Kelsie,
I don’t know what i did wrong, but the Granite Gourd wouldn’t work for me. The others so far have been fine though. Can you help? Thanks!
Sure thing! Send me a quick email over at craftingforweeks@gmail.com
sorry for the delay… just sent it! thanks so much!
I’ll get in touch with the designer and see what I can do.
Thank you so much for this blog hop and these wonderful patterns!. I love fall and these are perfect for decor!
I love the patterns but I can’t seem to get more than a couple of the patterns from these blogs as I’m not always close to a computer to download them. I would like for y’all to give just a little more time so I can get more than one or two. I’ve had this problem with other sights also. There are so many that I would like to do but just can’t get the patterns. And I can’t afford to buy them on my ss check.
Hi Barbara,
Sorry you’re not able to access the computer each day. We will have a pattern for free download each weekday for 24hrs. After that many of the patterns linked in the post are free for use on the designers blog.
So I tried to get day 6 pattern today 9/5/2021 at 2:30 est and it says the coupon code had already expired. The next one shows to come back tomorrow 9/6/2021. How did I miss the coupon code if it runs from 12:01am to 11:59 pm EST? Is there some mistake?
Thank you,
Loretta
Hi Loretta!
The blog hop will run primarily on weekdays. This week we had a bonus pattern. But there is no pattern for 9/5. I will go through tonight and add dates to each day to help avoid any confusion.
Ok. I didn’t know that it worked that way. Thanks for explaining!
Such a great idea! Thank you. I made my first pumpkins last year for Thanksgiving. They are so easy and fun to do in varied yarns. Gave many to friends. Just love fall. Have a great weekend and thanks again!
