Change to green yarn and attach with a slst to the circle.  Ch 4

1 sc in each ch (3 sc); slst to pumpkin next to where you joined the green.  Knot off and weave all loose ends in.

Using black yarn and a yarn needle, embroider a face on your pumpkin.  We used a straight stitch for the eyes and an outline stitch for the mouth.

Stitch a bar pin to the backside of your pumpkin with a regular needle and thread.
