  • 4 x double ended needles (3mm)

Make sure the cookie is turned inside out before the final rows. The part you are working on now is the base and should show as right side stocking stitch.

  1. Round 18: p2tog x 4 (8)
  2. Round 19: p –

Thread yarn through remaining stitches and pull tight.

Making Up:

Flatten the cookie and tack the top and base together, through the centre, to keep it flat. Use yarn in a contrasting colour to embroider chocolate chips on the top part of the cookie. Use a few overlapping stitches for each one and don't worry about being too neat or uniform.

Notes:

Needle/Yarn Size

As with most ODDknit patterns the yarn and needle sizes in the "you will need" section are just a guide. Feel free to improvise with whatever needles and yarn you have lying around - that's half the fun!
