Once you reach the dead end, you will find that the way upward is blocked by vines. Do note that you can only proceed further if you have the Cling Grip (wall jump) ability unlocked. Use the wall jump to climb and cut the vines, and enter the final area.
There you'll find a table that allows you to craft Pimpillo. Stand close to it and press Inspect, and you will be able to craft the tool using Craftmetal.

Note that unlocking it doesn't automatically equip it. You need to do so manually while resting on a bench. The Pimpillo functions as a throwable explosive pouch. It bursts on impact or ignites after a short fuse, dealing a lot of damage in an area. You can hold up to three charges at once. It's one of the best tools to carry in Hollow Knight Silksong.
