Eyes: Attach the safety eyes after the 7th stitch row counting from the top center of the head. The eyes are 4 stitches apart from each other. Back to the crochet pattern.
Nose: Sew the nose vertically centered between the eyes.
Ears: Sew the ears right and left 3 stitch rows from the center of the head onto the head.
With a tapestry needle push a Creme colored thread through one stitch on the inside of the ear and let the tapestry needle emerge from another stitch close to the transition of the ear to the head. Pull the thread through the stitches.
Repeat this with the same stitch at the base of the head, but further up with stitches left and right next to the stitch you first pushed through. Pull the thread through enough stitches to create a circular pattern (see pictures).
Eukalyptus: Sew the eucalyptus to the koala’s right or left hand using a Moss colored thread. Let the end of the thread disappear in the koala’s arm.
DONE!
