Fasten off, leaving an exceptionally long thread for sculpting.

Sculpting the Pumpkin Segments

Thread your long tail onto a yarn needle.
Pass the thread vertically from the bottom center, opening up through the top center opening.
Wrap the thread around the outside of the body, alignment-guided by the visible valleys formed by your increases/decreases.
Pull tightly to indent the surface and create 5 clean pumpkin segments. Repeat this path for all 5 lines, securing tightly at the base when finished.
