SEWING INSTRUCTIONS:
- Attach ears to the head, placing them between rows 2 and 6.
- Position arms and legs wherever you think they look best.
- Sew the tail to the back, placing it between rows 18 and 20.
- Fix the muzzle to the face between rows 8 and 11, ensuring it lines up with the eyes.
DECORATION INSTRUCTIONS:
- Cut a strand of yarn about 20-25 inches long for the nose and spots.
- To make the nose:
- Start by threading a needle with the yarn.
- Push the needle from the back of the head to a spot between the muzzle.
- Sew three stitches in a triangle shape for the nose. Finish by pulling the needle out at the starting
- point for the spots.
- To add spots:
Continue with the same yarn, sewing horizontal stitches (like the backside) for spots.
- Move the needle out to where you want the next spot, changing rows randomly.
- Keep adding spots to your preference.
- If you run out of yarn, start a new piece by inserting the needle at a random stitch and bringing it out where you want the next spot.
- Leave a short tail of yarn when starting with a new piece so you can hide it later.
- Remember to hide all yarn tails when finished by weaving them into the body.
