Assembling

Pupils: The pupils are 6 mm safety eyes which have to be shortened a little after attaching to the eye so that the eye itself is not unintentionally deformed after sewing it onto the head.

Push the safety eye through the middle of the crocheted eye. If you have problems pushing the safety eye through the middle of the crocheted eye, take a crochet hook and pierce it through the middle to enlarge the opening.

Then attach the washer and cut short the stem of the eye with scissors.

Eyes: Sew on the eyes 3 stitch rows before the Créme colored area on the head. The eyes should have at the narrowest point a distance of 1 stitch to each other.

Ears: Sew on the ears left and right behind the eyes. The ears should be as close as possible to the color transition.

Legs: Since the body consists mostly of bobbles, you have to sew the legs over a bobble. Begin sewing on the front legs in the 3rd “bobble row”, begin counting from the color transition. Sew on the legs so that the “feet” (the round part of the legs) are attached lower than the bottom of the body. Then sew the hind legs at the same height as the front legs at the back of the body.
