Rnd 2-8: sc around (28) (7 rounds)
Add safety eyes between rounds 4-5 with 3 stitches between.
Burn the tip of the safety eyes and flatten the melted ends after eyes are secured so that they don’t poke through to the other side of the fry container or through the fries themselves. (optional)
Slip stitch in the next stitch and make an invisible fasten off. Weave in remaining yarn tails.
Invisible fasten off: after your last sl st, pull yarn through to compete the fasten off.
Using your tapestry needle and yarn tail, skip the next stitch and insert your needle into the following stitch (both loops) and pull yarn through (yarn in now on the inside of the fry container)
Insert your needle through the back loop only of the sl st you ended with and pull yarn through.
