Head details
Embroider the nose with the thread of black color. Divide it into 4 thin strands. Embroider
the nose with a triangle shape. (As shown in the photo.) When whole the triangle is filled
with stitches, make 3-4 horizontal stitches at the upper part of the nose.
The eyes are sewn above the round 8, at the
level of the first and the last inc of the
round 8.
(Pay attention, that I don’t make any
special needle sculpting for the eyes. BUT! I
pull the threads tightly when sewing them
and in this way the eyes are sunk into the
head and they look beautifully.
Embroider the eye whites with the thread of cream color
(If you are going to use safety eyes, then you need to
make special needle sculpting for the eyes.)
Embroider the eyelids with the thread of black color YarnArt
Jeans (divide the thread into 4 strands, I used 2 strands)
Embroider the eyebrows with the thread
of black color YarnArt Jeans (divide the
thread into 4 strands). Add blushes to the
cheeks
Sew on the ears at the level of the eyes
Sew the head to the body, having fixed it with pins. The color changing line is
located at the body side. This will help us to hide this line under the arm.
Add stuffing to the space between the body and the head while sewing. So the
head would be fixed much better
Thread jointing of arms
- Mark the points for arms attaching. I
attach the arms leaving 6 rounds from
the head.
- Insert the needle into the toy back,
bring out at the toy side where the first
arm will be attached
- Insert the needle under the third
round of the arm (count from the
top), bring it out leaving 2 sts from
the entry point
- Insert the needle into the same point
on the body, run through the body out
from another side where the second arm
will be attached.
5.The second arm should be attached in
the same way as the first one, insert the
needle under the third round of the arm,
bring it out, leaving 2 sts, reinsert the
needle into the same point on the body.
- Repeat all the steps with both
arms.
- Bring the needle out from the point, where it was inserted at the first time. Pull
threads tightly so the arms were pushed to the body. Tie a knot, fasten off the
thread ends and weave in inside of the body using a crochet hook
Thread jointing of legs
I attach the legs at the level of 8-9
rounds. Insert the needle under the 4th
round of the leg (counting from the
top)
Embroider the straps with the thread of
black color YarnArt Jeans. (Divide the thread
into 4 strands, I used 2 strands.)
The straps should be embroidered above
rounds 7 and 8. (The stitch length is 3 sc.
Crochet cap
(The cap isn’t crocheted in a spiral. Start every new round with 3 turning ch
(which are counted as one DC stitch), finish every round with a slip stitch, which
joins the beginning and the end of a round. I use crochet hook 2

the chain is not twisted).

Fasten off the thread, leaving a tail with 15 cm in length.
Bring the thread through front loops of last 6 stitches of
the last round using a needle, pull the opening closed carefully,
sew on the bell
Shorts
(The shorts isn’t crocheted in a spiral. Start every new round with 3
turning ch (which are counted as one DC stitch), finish every round with a
slip stitch, which joins the beginning and the end of a round. I use crochet
hook 1,75
Round 1. Make a chain. Its length should
be equal to the toy’s belly circumference in
its widest part. I made ch50, joined it in
a circle with sl st (make sure the chain is
not twisted)

Round 4-8. 3 turning ch, 49 DC, sl st (50)
(5 rounds
Fasten off the thread, leaving a tail with 20
cm in length.
Turn the fabric inside out. We need to work 4
sc, inserting the hook under the stitches of the
front and the back parts of the fabric (in this
way we form the opening for our legs).
I have 50-8=42 st, 42:2=21 st for the each
opening.
Crochet 4 sc
Sew a button in front on the right
sid
Attach the thread from behind, make
chain. I made ch54
The button should slide into the buttonhole formed with this chain
