Frequently asked questions

How do I keep stuffing from showing?

Use tight stitches and go down a hook size if needed — the pattern's own tip is that a smaller hook gives neater stitches.

How is the slice made?

Chain 10 in white and work graduated stitches (sc-hdc-dc waves) along the chain, then edge the wedge with one round of yellow sc.
