🍟 PART 1 – MAKE THE FRIES (MAKE 3–4 PIECES)
Each fry is a small tube.

Round 1:
Magic ring → 4 sc inside (4)
Round 2:
sc around (4)
Round 3:

→ This makes the fry long enough.
For thicker fries: increase to 5 sc if you want.
Stuffing:

- Do NOT overfill (fries should be soft).
Tie off and leave a tail 3–4 cm long.
🍟 PART 2 – MAKE THE FRIES BOX
The box is crocheted bottom → upward.
BOTTOM OF BOX
Using red yarn:
Round 1:
MR → 6 sc (6)
Round 2:
inc in each stitch → 12
Round 3:
(1 sc, inc) × 6 → 18
Round 4:
(2 sc, inc) × 6 → 24
⛑️ This forms a flat circle.
BODY OF THE BOX
Round 5:
sc all around (24)
(Use back loop only if you want a crisp bottom edge.)
Round 6–11:
sc around (24)
→ You should now have a short cup shape.
🍟 PART 3 – THE TOP “FOLD” OF THE BOX
The cartoon fries box has a lip at the top.
Round 12 (FLO):
sc around in front loops only (24)
Round 13–14:
sc around (24)
Fasten off with long tail for sewing later.
😊 PART 4 – ADD THE FACE (POSITION EXPLAINED)
