Fasten off. If you are crocheting with cotton, acrylic, or wool blend yarn, leave a very long tail. You need the length to wrap around the pumpkin 4-5 times.

If you are crocheting with plush yarn, fasten off and weave in the yarn end. Now you need an additional cut of the cotton or acrylic yarn in the same color as plush and the length to wrap around the pumpkin 4-5 times.

Let’s make “slices”

Insert the needle into the middle of the pumpkin (where we’ve just finished to crochet), and pull it out from the other side (where we’ve started to crochet).

Wrap the pumpkin, and again insert the needle in the same place.

Pull it out on the other side and pull it tight.

In total, repeat this action 6 times, so we get 6 “slices”.

Fasten off, weave in the yarn ends.

Sew the stalk to the pumpkin.
