Cute and squishy, this pumpkin is a great decor piece for Halloween. It is a quick project with simple stitches. The pattern is knit in the round with the beads strung on the yarn and placed as you work from the top down. Knitting the beads can be tricky. There are tips for knitting beads in the round. The beginning rounds of this pattern can also be a challenge with the increases and juggling needles. This makes the top secure and the yarn tail will not need weaving in.

After your Jack O’ Lantern is knit, there are finishing instructions on how to stuff, shape, and complete your cute pumpkin!
