To get the perfect pumpkin shape, the sections are wrapped around the outside with yarn.
Take a tapestry needle with strong thread in the tone of yarn (in two threads) 1.5 m (59″) long.
Separation points are decreases (above) and increases (below).
Are some instructions missing at the end? Dont see anything explaining how the strands are attached to shape the sections. Thanks for great pattern!
I googled it and it turns out the blossom end goes at the bottom of the pumpkin
What is the blossom end?
More instructions on attaching the blossom end, stem and tendril would be very helpful!
I don’t understand how to make the scrunch
There is a link a little below the end of the written instructions. Look for Next Story. Ckick on the link for “Small crochet pumpkin free pattern” . That pattern has more details…
