Insert the hook into the front loop of the 1st st of rnd #4, ch1 and work 3 hdc into the same st; keep crocheting in the FLO and work 3 hdc in each st around (90); F/O, cut and hide the yarn.



PUMPKIN (rust yarn)

Rnd 11: sc dec around (8); F/O, close the hole and leave a very long strand of yarn to create the bumps and attach the pumpkin to the whipped cream.


How to create the pumpkin bumps:

Insert the needle up through the center and pull it out on the other side, wrap it around the pumpkin back to the bottom, stick the needle back up through the center and pull it tight so that it squeezes the pumpkin. Continue wrapping it around so that you end up with 6 bumps.


Create the STEM with some brown yarn by working 4 chs, 1 sl st into the 2nd ch from the hook, 2 sl st (3); F/O and leave a long strand of yarn to attach the stem to the pumpkin.



Sew the pumpkin to the center part of the whipped cream.

Pin the whipped cream to the top of the cupcake to secure it in place and then use the long strand of yarn to sew it on.
