ASSEMBLY and finishing touches
• Stuff the body, sew it to the head.
• Sew the legs to the body between rounds 8 and 19, making sure the construction is stable and the toy can sit without rolling to one side. Stuff the hips lightly before closing the gaps. Bend the legs and secure them with a couple of stitches in the proper position.
• Sew the hands to the body making sure the striped colors are matched. The hands don’t need to be stuffed.
• Sew the tail to the back of the body between rounds 7 and 9.
• Pinch down the bottom parts of the ears, sew them to the head approx. between rounds 22 and 24.
• Attach, glue on or embroider the eyes in the position that looks best for you.
• Using yarn scraps or embroidery floss in different colors, make the nose, eyelids, eyebrows, cheeks and fingers.
• Make some stitches in contrasting color here and there on the head and the belly to give your toy more personality.
