Break yarn and pull through remaining stitches using a yarn needle. Pull to tighten and make a knot to secure.
How to finish the Candy Corns
Once the candy corn is knitted, stuff with fiberfill. Add enough fiberfill so that the candy corn will stand up on its own.
Weave the yarn in and out around the bottom of the candy corn. Pull to gather. Make a knot to secure.
