With sl st in BLO attach row 1 to row 22 to form a tube. Of course you can also sew the parts together, but I like the texture more with sl st. Leave a bit of yarn to close your tube. Now turn it inside out.

When you have finished one side, fill your frosting with stuffing. Afterwards close your second opening.

Align your two pieces with the right sides out and whipstitch them together with dark yellow.
If you want to make a segment, just make one piece, fold it in half and stitch the edges together.
For a kiwi slice, start with white yarn and change to green after the first round.
Congratulations! When you’re reading this, you mastered this pattern and I hope it was understandable enough.
Now the only thing left is sewing all those parts together. Or as in my case, use your glue gun for attaching the parts. Don’t forget the eyes and mouth. You can either use safety eyes or stitch them on. I prefer using puff paint or pearl maker pens.
