These pumpkins are made with a square of garter stitch folded, seamed, stuffed and stitched to make a pumpkin shape.

The small size is worked with a single strand of worsted weight yarn on either size 6 or 8 US (4-5 mm) knitting needles.

The large size was worked with three strands of yarn held together on 10.5/6.5 mm knitting needles.

This is a great project for a new knitter because you only have to know how to cast on and knit.
