Designing the face

Pin eyes to the pumpkin approximately between rounds 24 and 32, 10 stitches apart. With black lightweight yarn embroider the eyelashes. You can use any cotton yarn leftovers.

With the same yarn sew a mouth.
With black yarn (the same velvety yarn we used to make the hat) sew the nose.

It’s time to shape your pumpkin.
We will need a tapestry needle for this. Pull the tail through the center of the pumpkin, wrap the yarn around the side, and pull back through the center.You can regulate the thread tension until you’ve got the look you like.

Repeat this a few more times to create indents around the pumpkin. I made 5 in total. Fasten off and secure the ends.

With pink light weight yarn make two cheeks:
Rnd 1. 8 sc in MR (8)
Rnd 2. 8 inc (16)
Finish with a slst, leaving a tail. Sew cheeks to the crochet pumpkin.
