This large pumpkin will really make a statement. BOO!!!!

You can also fill it with washed stones or bags of rice, etc. to make your very own Halloween doorstop, And, of course, it’s a fabulous hostess gift - just make sure you allow a couple of evenings to make it as it is a big knit.

You can choose to make a smooth, modern version or a more dimpled and rustic version of the basic pattern.
