A closer look at this pattern
What to cut. What to keep.
Follow these shapes
Cut the three tower tops, their lower wall shapes, two narrow wall strips, central window, moon and star. The arched doorway joins the central wall cut-out at the bottom.
Leave these areas connected
Leave each tower top separated from its lower walls. Preserve the white channels inside the towers and the gaps beside the narrow wall strips.
Fit this design to your pumpkin
Inspect the narrow wall strips and small center window at 180–185 mm. Check the rightmost tower and left star when centering the complete paper pattern.
Print width: 180–185 mm. Check the whole print against your pumpkin before transferring; this range does not guarantee the design will be easy to carve.
