How to Make a Sock Pumpkin for Fall

Each step for this fall craft is detailed below so it’s easy to follow.

Cut the sock above the heel, using a straight cut. Turn the sock piece inside out.

To make a pumpkin with a sock, gather the sock at one end and using a rubber band, close it off. Turn the piece inside out.

Stuff the sock with the Poly-fil.

Gather the opening at the top of the sock and insert the stick. Close the opening with a small rubber band.

Trim the excess material at the top.

If desired, add the raffia or a ribbon. Make a few extra to decorate your home or to share!
