Second half of rind:

R3: Inc every st (12 sts)

R4: *SC 1, 2 SC in next st* rep 4 times (18 sts)

Bind off
Flesh of fruit (make 2):

R1: With cream yarn, 4SC in magic loop, sl st to close.

Switch to lemon yellow yarn.

R2: CH 1, 2 SC in each st around, sl st to close (8 sts)

R3: CH 1, *SC 1, 2 SC in next st* rep 4 times, sl st to close (12 sts)

R4: CH 1, *SC 2, 2 SC in next st* rep 4 times, sl st to close (16 sts)

*R5: CH 1, *SC 3, 2 SC in next st* rep 4 times, sl st to close (20 sts)

R6: CH 1, *SC 4, 2 SC in next st* rep 4 times, sl st to close (24 sts)

*This is where it gets a little fuzzy for me. You might have to eyeball what's going to fit. If you make the flesh and it's too small, then just keep increasing until it's the right size. If it's too big, rip out a round! It's easy to fix no matter what.

Switch back to cream yarn

R7: CH 1, *SC 5, 2 SC in next st* rep 4 times, sl st to close (28 sts)

Bind off, embroider sections of fruit with cream yarn. Attach magnets to underside if
desired by sewing in tightly. Attach to rind and sew 3/4 of the way around, stuff, then finish sewing shut. Weave in ends.
