Pizza Garland

Pizza Garland

Finished Size:
Each Slice: 5.5" across widest point, 7" long
Garland pattern uses 6 slices.

Materials:

Gauge: Not important

Notes and Tips:

I use a particular method to increase stitches in the Pizza Slice in order to make the edges of my work super straight and clean, but as long as you increase Rows 1-15 by 1 stitch per each row, your garland will still look fine.
Pizza Slice – I made 6, but you can adjust to your preference.

Instructions:
