You can come across many toys designed in the shape of pumpkins, especially on Halloween, but the toy I will share today is a very unique and special design. Thanks to the tiny decorations, the toy will be a great accessory for Halloween. I think it can be an indispensable piece, especially for decorating a fireplace or a child’s room. In fact, you can make a few more of this pumpkin and use it in different ways. I can say that the buttons used in the eyes of the toy are a very smart choice in terms of design.
I also recommend that you do not forget to make the mouth and teeth of the toy. The gray color used on the stem of the pumpkin is a really nice choice.

Pumpkin
Crochet a fabric size 12*30 cm.
Ch32, from the 2nd chain on the hook: 30hdc, work all rows in BLO (photo 1, 2) until we reach the length we need (photo 3).
Thread the thread into a long needle and pass the thread through the upper loops, pull and again pass the thread around the circle until the hole is closed.
Connect the edges with sl st. Leave a long yarn end for needle sculpting.
Exit the needle through the inner side to close the opening of the pumpkin later, but first stuff it with fiberfill.
Next, pierce the pumpkin from top to bottom.
And repeat this action 6 times, each time returning to the top, adjust the thread with your hand, forming slices.

2-3 rnd. 21sc.
4 rnd. (5sc, dec)*3 (18).
5 rnd. (4sc, dec)*3 (15).
6-8 rnd. 15sc.

Thread a small piece of thread through the needle and form a mouth and a small triangle symbolizing a tooth using small stitches.
