Take a 1.20-meter thread. Start weaving at the top of the burger, on the row indicated by the arrow.

Continue weaving along the grid on the right-hand side.

From row 13 onwards, top and bottom are woven separately. Start with the top of the burger and the salad.

When this part is finished, thread your yarn through a few beads and draw it out through the 2nd red bead.

Weave the last two rows (steak and bread). Tuck your thread into a few beads and cut the remaining thread.

Take a thread about 1 meter long. Begin weaving the left side of the burger, starting at the bottom of the row marked with an arrow. Weave along the grid. As for the right-hand side, the last rows are woven separately. First the top, then the bottom.

Tuck the thread into a few beads and trim off any excess.

To stiffen your brooch, brush the back with jewel glue and attach the brooch support. Allow to dry according to the glue instructions.
