Frequently asked questions

Can I make just one item?

Yes — each food (burger, fries, drumstick, cola, cone, shrimp) is a self-contained little pattern you can make on its own.

How is the ice-cream swirl made?

It's a long ch-100 strip of double crochet worked on three sides of the chain, then coiled into a soft-serve swirl.
