When crocheting a striped pumpkin, change color after each row in the turning stitch. If you carry the
yarn along within the stitches, you avoid having to weave in a lot of ends. 😊

From the 2nd row and onwards, crochet in the back loop only.
The last stitch is worked through both loops of the stitch.
