How to assemble the knit pumpkin topiary
Fold the piece over and sew the side seam closed.
Make a running stitch along the bottom of the pumpkin using a yarn needle. Pull the ends of the yarn to close the opening and secure with a knot.
Stuff the pumpkin with fiber-fill.
Make a running stitch along the top of the pumpkin and pull to close the opening. Repeat these steps with the other 2 pumpkins.
Stack the medium pumpkin on top of the large pumpkin and stitch them together.
Stack the small pumpkin on top and stitch it to the medium at the base.
Pick up and single crochet the stitches around the top closure. Keep working in the round until the stem measures 3-4 inches tall. In the last row, single crochet in every other stitch to close the opening. Break yarn and thread through the remaining stitches. Weave in ends.
