Stuffing

Abbreviations used

MR – magic ring

sc – single crochet

sl st – slip stitch

dec – single crochet 2 together

Rounds are not joined, so it’s useful to use a stitch marker to mark the beginning of the rounds. 
If you don't like the increasing/decreasing lines, divide the increasings/decreasings on the round so that they don't match with previous rounds.
