Assembly & Finishing Details

  1. Facial Features: Using embroidery floss or dark yarn, stitch a small “V” or triangle shape for the nose between the eyes, adding a small vertical line underneath. Embroider small eyebrows a few rounds above the eyes.
  2. Attaching Ears: Position the ears near the top of the head (around Rnds 40–42) and secure them firmly using your yarn needle.
  3. Attaching Arms: Position the arms symmetrically on either side of the body, just below the neck turn (around Rnd 25), and sew in place.
  4. Attaching Tail: Center the tail on the lower back portion of the body so it serves as a support prop when seated. Secure tightly.
