Notes
Burger 'hood' that slips over the inner ball: the BLO rounds mark the fold line, Rnds 17-24 flare back out to form the bottom bun. In this author's shorthand f=dc(长针 as used), fw=stitch+picot ruffle, k2=skip 2. Original note dated 2023-02-14; 图解来自@一只小团子.
Frequently asked questions
How does the bun fold work?
BLO rounds 11-14 crease the fabric; after Rnd 24 the flared section folds back on itself to become the bottom bun — glue optional.
What goes inside?
A separately-crocheted 42-st stuffed ball with an embroidered face peeks out between the bun layers.
