Chevron Pumpkin

This year for Halloween I wanted to do a chevron pumpkin

This one took a while to do so if you want a fast pumpkin don't pick this one.

Artsy fartsy needs: a pumpkin and I used just a knife but I think a pumpkin carving kit would do better

I thought it would look better to cut out the top already like the chevron design instead of a circle.

Carve out the inside.

First I traced where I would do the carving by lightly cutting the pumpkin, which I think you can faintly see in the picture. 

Then I took the knife and sliced up the top layer of the pumpkin like so.

It hurt a little to use the knife but I wanted to finish it. 

I think a pumpkin kit would be easier or maybe a potato slicer but I finished it!

Sadly when I put a candle in the pumpkin it didn't light up but it still looked pretty
