Materials

Crochet Hook size G, 4.00 mm., scissors, and tapestry needle (to assemble and weave in ends).
If you’re new to crochet, you can get started building your tools with this set of hooks from Amazon. You get the most product for your money.
If you already have a lot of hooks, just not in size G yet, you can order just this hook. I would suggest in investing in an ergonomic hook with a larger handle. Almost all of my food creations use this size hook, so it’s a worth it upgrade.
Medium, Size 4 Yarn
Here are the brand and colors I used, but similar colors in other size 4 yarn will yield similar results.
Brand: I love this cotton (sold at Hobby Lobby). Colors #: 326 Curry (Yellow), 12 Buttercup (Lighter Yellow), 6 White
stitches/abbreviations:
Chain (CH): Insert hook and pull back through a loop.
Single Crochet (SC): Insert hook in desired stitch, yarn over and pull a loop back through the stitch, yarn over and pull through all loops on hook.
Increase (INC): Single crochet twice in the same stitch. This would increase the stitch count by 1 each time completed.
Partial lemon slice crochet pattern start
In color 12 Buttercup (lighter shade of yellow), using magic circle technique, complete 6 SC. (6 SC).
Remaining pattern is now completed in rows.
First row: 6 INC, CH 1, turn. (12 SC)
Second row: * SC, INC, repeat from * 5x, CH 1, turn. (18 SC)
Third row: * 2 SC, INC, repeat from * 5x, CH 1, turn. (24 SC)
Fourth row: * 3 SC, INC, repeat from * 5x, CH 1, turn. (30 SC)
Fifth Row [Note, we will color change at this end of this row]: * 4 SC INC, repeat from * 5x, change colors to white by pulling through white yarn on the last SC of the row, CH 1, turn. (36 SC)
Sixth Row [Note, we will color change at this end of this row]: * 5 SC INC, repeat from * 5x, change colors to the darker yellow by pulling through darker yellow yarn on the last SC of the row, CH 1, turn. (42 SC).
Cut long tail and tie off.
Repeat the above steps to create two partial lemon slices.
To add wedge detail, using white, from wrong side, pull through a strand in round 6 (white round) and insert strand into Round 1 (middle) to create a white line. Repeat this 5 – 6 times creating white lines connecting Round 2 and Round 6.
Partial Lemon Slice Assembly
Take both lemon slices and with wrong sides facing in/right sides facing out, line up the rows to sew both pieces together. Using a tapestry needle or your crochet hook, weave the yarn tail (darker yellow color) through the outside stitches of both lemon slices. Once the lemon slice is closed, you can secure the lines of the slice if needed. Tie off and weave the remaining tail inside finished product.

Repeat this pattern as many times as you’d like to create lemon slices for your kids to serve up a family tea party.
