Step 1: Make a hole at the top. You can make a circle with a pencil beforehand or go freehand. First, make shallow cuts, it will help the knife get deeper on the second round.

Step 3: Draw a scary Jack-o’-lantern pattern on the side of the pumpkin. Start by carving eyes, nose, and mouth with jaws. Make shallow cuts at the beginning, allowing your knife to stay on course.
