Final Assembly & Details
- Head & Ears: Attach head securely to the torso, aligning center curves. Position ears onto the back of the head over Rows 9–10, spaced roughly 7 stitches apart.
- Limb Attachment: Connect arms and legs using a thread-jointing technique (passing yarn completely through the torso from side to side) so the limbs lie flush and remain movable.
- Paw Sculpting:
- Paws: Wrap heavy thread tightly over the pink palm sections around Row 4 to pull three distinct finger indents; repeat twice for strength.
- Feet: Draw thread between Row 3 and Row 9 three times across the toes to sculpt four defined foot digits.
- Embellishments:
- Stitch gray patches onto the belly, top of head, and back of one ear. Use black thread to embroider decorative outer hatch lines around each patch.
- Embroider delicate eyebrows and a tiny mouth line using black thread.
- Cross-stitch a small brown “X” between Rows 13–15 on the lower tummy for a belly button.
- Stitch the tail centrally onto the lower back spanning Rows 7–12.
