Step 1
Roll a sheet of combed wool Felket into a roll 10 cm high. Using two needles inserted into the holder, tighten the roll from the ends and sides until a cake blank 9 cm high is formed.
Step 2
Coat the top and bottom of the cake with chocolate-colored wool, often sticking needles into the coat.
Step 3
Make a 2 cm strip of vanilla-colored wool around the cake and a 1 cm strip of red wool (an imitation of jam).
Step 4
For this step, twist the threads from combed wool and pull them out. Then place them on the borders of the strips and fix with a single needle so that the borders are clearer.

Step 5
Put on top of the cake three circles of sheep’s wool threads (in the form of cream) and fix them, often sticking a needle.
Step 6
Roll a ball of red wool, often sticking a needle in order to properly compact the wool. Form a beautiful cherry by making a recess on top.
Step 7
At the end of the work, fix the cherry on the cake. To do this, twist the thread from red wool and pull it out. Then place the thread in the recess of the cherry and pierce the needle through the cherry into the cake.
