Assembling

Legs: After you’ve finished crocheting all pieces, start sewing the legs onto the body. Start sewing the first leg onto the body directly over the edge that was created by the round that was crocheted only into the back loop. Sew on the second leg 4 to 5 stitches left or right from the first leg, again just over the edge.

Jacket: Wrap the side of the jacket with the 15 stitches around the neck and with the opening to the front around the body and sew the jacket to the body with an Anthracite colored thread.

Arms: Then sew the arms left and right onto the jacket. Do not sew the arms directly over the legs but slightly behind the legs.

Eyes: Attach the safety eyes after the 6th stitch row, counting from the stitch edge. The eyes are 4 stitches apart from each other. Back to the crochet pattern.

Hair: Sew the hair onto the top of the head, as shown in the pictures.

Nose: Embroider the nose with a Greenery thread. Embroider the nose centered under the eyes. To do this, pull the thread horizontally several times from one stitch through the next, skipping one stitch. Repeat until a thick nose forms.

Ears: Sew the ears 4 stitches right and left from the eyes onto the head, so that the upper part of the ear is on the same height as the eyes.

Eyebrow: Attach the eyebrow directly above the eyes. It should start at the outside of the left eye and reach to the outside of the right eye, as shown in the pictures.

Screws: Take a Smoke Gray colored thread and form a circle with it. Wrap one end of the thread 5 times around the circle and then slowly pull it together. Create a total of 2 screws.
