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.
Arms: Sew the arms left and right onto the body, 1 stitch row under the “neck”. Do not sew the arms directly over the legs but slightly behind the legs.
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 to the head centered below the eyes.
Tail: Sew the tail to the back of the body centered over the stitch edge.
Ears: Sew the ears onto the top of the head with a distance of 1 to 2 stitches at the narrowest point to each other.
DONE!
