R1: SC 6 sts into magic ring, pull closed

R3: 2 SC in each st around (12 sts)

R4: *SC 1, 2 SC in next st* rep 6 times (18 sts)

R5: *SC 2, 2 SC in next st* rep 6 times (24 sts)

R6: *SC 3, 2 SC in next st* rep 6 times (30 sts)

R7: *SC 4, 2 SC in next st* rep 6 times (36 sts)

R8 - R16: SC around (36 sts)

R17: *SC 5, 2 SC in next st* rep 6 times (42 sts)


R18-R19: SC around (42 sts)

R20:  *SC 5, dec 1* rep 6 times (36 sts)


R21: *SC 4, dec 1* rep 6 times (30 sts)


R22:  *SC 3, dec 1* rep 6 times (24 sts)


R23:  *SC 2 dec 1* rep 6 times (18 sts)


At this point, stuff with fiberfill.


R24:  *SC 1, dec 1* rep 6 times (12 sts)


R25: SC in every other stitch. (6 sts)


Bind off, leaving a very long tail.

1. Starting at the top of the pepper, thread the long tail of yarn and pull it all the way around to the bottom of the pepper. 

2. Insert needle in bottom center of pepper and bring out to top center, pulling yarn tight.

3. Bring yarn back to the top of the pepper, and repeat first two steps on other half of the pepper, making sure you pull that yarn pretty tight. You pepper will look like this goatse thing again:

 

STEM

CH 4, sl st in first chain to create a loop


R1: CH 2, hdc in loop, *CH 2, start to DC, but only pull through first 2 loops, leaving 3rd alone (you will have 2 loops left on the hook at this point). YO as if to DC again, insert into ring, YO and pull through all 4 loops on hook* Repeat from * 5 times. Close round by slip stitching into top st in first CH 2, bind off, leaving a long tail so you can sew it to the pepper. 


If you think this is too complicated, just make a circle. I only did this because it's the start of a hexagon and I thought it might look more realistic, but it still turned out looking like a circle to me. :\


4 SC in magic loop, sc around until desired length is reached. Inc twice (6 sts), sc around one or two more rounds, leaving a long tail. Attach stem to base of stem. Attach entire stem piece to the top of the pepper, weave in ends, and you're finished!
