Materials:
- Sock
- Poly-fil fiberfill
- Scissors
- Thin ribbon
- Jute string
- Hot glue gun and glue sticks
- Faux pumpkin leaf
Directions:
Step 1
Cut the sock across from the top of the heel, then stuff the cut part with poly-fil fiberfill, and make sure to shape it like a smooth round ball as you fill it until almost full. Gather the ends of the fabric, then tie it together securely, and knot a few times.

Step 2
Wrap the ribbon around the ball a few times as shown in the video, then tie it securely at the center cutting off the excess tail, and apply hot glue to make it even more secure.
Step 3
Wrap the jute string a couple of times around the center to make the stem, then apply hot glue as you go, and adhere a piece of faux pumpkin leaf on the side of the stem for a nice finish.
