Finishing

  1. Referring to the photograph as a guide to placement, use yarn tails or yarn scraps to sew the following pieces together:
    • Using whipstitch, and holding the wrong side of the lettuce facing the right side of the tomato, sew Round 1 of lettuce to the last round of tomato, sewing through the front loops only of tomato stitches.
    • Sew the top bun to the lettuce, firmly stuffing the burger before completing the seam.

Shape Patty

  • Thread a long strand of A onto a yarn needle. Working around the outer edge of the patty, insert the needle through any st in the first round of the patty, then straight up through the patty and out through the corresponding st of the last round of the patty. Insert the needle in the next st of the last round of the patty, then straight down through the patty and out through the corresponding st of the first round of the patty. Pull on the yarn to plump the patty. Repeat this process as needed to achieve a pleasing shape.

Weave in and trim any remaining ends.
