1. Twist a band into a figure 8 onto the back end of your hook. This will be your working end until you slide and turn. It's ok if you don't have a double ended crochet hook! It will work!!

2. With the exception of the foundation band, use two bands as one for every step throughout.  For band one, only pull through two loops. Also, two double loops counts as one loop. All following motifs pull through one. (A small and big pumpkin counts as one motif.)
