HandmadeQT: Lil pumpkin+pattern

I made this beanie for a friend who's having a baby boy this week. I decided to do fall/halloween theme. I made this with no pattern, adding texture with stitches to make it look more realistic. I really want to add curly cues, but didn't have time. I think I will make another and add curly cues.
