Learn how to crochet a PERFECT pumpkin coaster with curly vines and a small maple leaf with today’s featured tutorial! Unlike the first crochet orange pumpkin coaster, it is worked using the UNIQUE chain stitch method that makes perfect pumpkin slices. The idea is to crochet the leaf base and work around to make more ridges of the pumpkin.
This is my favorite way to crochet the pumpkin coaster, and you should definitely give it a try for this year’s crochet fall decorations.
My favorite part is the joined crochet stalk, leaf, and the coiled vines. Continue reading to learn more about this crochet maple leaf & coiled vines pumpkin amigurumi for beginners. The maple leaf is also easier. Just be sure to know all the basic stitches.

Tutorial to Crochet the Foundation Chain Coaster
This project is a festive Halloween-themed home decor item featuring a pumpkin-shaped table coaster with an attached stem and leafy vine. The base starts with a foundation chain using orange yarn, where varying stitch heights like single, half-double, double, and triple crochets create a natural, rounded pumpkin shape across symmetrical rounds worked in back loops.
Once the main orange body is completed and fastened off, a green yarn stem is attached alongside a curled tendril and a small leaf motif. The finished flat piece functions perfectly as a cozy autumn mug rug, drink coaster, or seasonal tabletop display.
