Your piece won't be round, it should have 5 sides to it. We turn it so that the end of crocheting is from the bottom. With light green, slip stitch into the end of upper left side. Begin to crochet from the wrong side in turning rows.

• R 8: 6 sc

Work 65 sc around the whole thing. Sl st to the first stitch. Fasten off.

If you're using safety eyes, you can attach them between R 4 and R 5. Embroider a mouth with black floss. Embroider cheeks with pink yarn/floss.

Work 65 sc around the whole thing. Repeat this 3 times to create a "bowl" shape. You can make your avocado wider by working more rows around the back piece, or make it slimmer by working fewer rows around. Holding the two parts together, sc around with dark green yarn. Before you close it up, stuff it tight with fiberfill.
