Pumpkin Canisters (A)
1. Paint label of canister if desired and let dry. Brush on
glue along lower 1” of canister. Coil CC along edge and
around canister, having each round of yarn touching the
previous round but not overlapping. Continue to brush on
glue and coil yarn to within ¼” of top edge, leaving top ¼”
free to allow lid to fit. Cut yarn.
2. Cut facial features from black felt and glue in place as
pictured.
Top: Trace circumference of canister lid onto center of
green felt. Mark 1¼” for small canister or 1½” for large
canister all around the outside of this circle and cut out
the larger circle. Cut out triangular shapes to within ¼” of
center circle to form jagged edge. Glue to lid top and side
edges. Cut a few more triangles from remaining felt for
“leaves” and glue to center of lid top.
Haunting Goodies!
Pumpkin Hoop (B)
1. Separate hoop sections; set outer hoop aside. Glue
CC yarn end to outer edge of inner hoop. Wind yarn firmly
across hoop, criss-crossing as pictured until all yarn from
skein is used. Wind firmly enough to prevent sagging or
loops but not tight enough to distort hoop shape. Glue yarn
end to edge of hoop. Spread glue all along outer edge
of yarn-covered hoop. Put outer hoop in place over inner
hoop and tighten screw. Glue rick rack over edge of hoop.
