For this project, you will need: 

• Yarn in 4 colors: orange, green, black, and white. The size of your pumpkin depends on the thickness of the chosen yarn (thinner yarn results in a smaller pumpkin, and vice versa). I used Kirovsky Iris and Pekhorka Openwork yarn. The height of the toy is approximately 12 cm. 
• Polyester fiberfill or any stuffing of your choice. 
• Copper wire with a diameter of 3 mm for armature of the arms. 
• Black half beads with diameters of 8 – 10 mm. 
• Crochet hook size 1.25 mm. 
• Needle for stuffing the head and embroidering the body. 
• Moment Crystal glue. 

Let’s get started.
