HOW TO FASTEN THE YARN:


Cut the yarn, leaving a tail approx. 8-10 cm long. Pass the yarn through the needle and
insert the needle in the 2nd loop from that, where you’ve finished crocheting. Then return to
the loop, where you’ve finished crocheting, and insert the needle top-down under its back
loop. Tighten the thread, hide the left end in the inside.

FABRIC EARS:
WATCH THE VIDEO HOW TO SEW THE EARS https://youtu.be/VM-EvjWP718
For the pattern draw a circle 6 cm in diameter on a thick paper with the compasses.
Cut it out.
Fold a piece of fabric in half by the right side inside. Pay attention to the direction of the
lengthwise thread while drawing out the pattern on a piece of fabric – it should go vertically.
You can easily check it – pull a fabric – the lengthwise thread pulls worse than the cross one.

FABRIC TAIL:
WATCH THE VIDEO HOW TO SEW THE TAIL https://youtu.be/gud3UNPvF_8
Text explanation:
Cut out a rectangle 20х3 cm, the long side is along the lengthwise line.
Bend a rectangle in half lengthwise by the right side inside.
Put a pin with a thread attached to it inside the tail. (fold a thread in two, make a strong knot,
pass a loop through the ring of a pin, pass a knot in a loop and pull. A knot should be near
the ring)
Connect with the pins.

Sew one lateral cut (the side, where a loop is) and the long side by the fore stitch.
Important, between the threads of a loop should be several stitches.
Further drag a pin outside, tighten a loop and pull it together with the end of the tail. Pinch
off a fabric with your fingers to help the end to drown quicker.
After the tail is turned out it is necessary to adjust it, for example with the help of a tube or a
sushi stick.
Little by little stuff the tail evenly, but not till the very end.

Before starting crocheting the body, you should have the
ready legs and tail. Stuff in the course of crocheting.

ASSEMBLY AND DECORATION:


Sew the eyes in the 18 row between the increasing stitches.

Sew the nose with a caproic or black thread.


Embroider the cheeks with a pink yarn.

Fix the head with the pins and sew it to the body. While sewing (to better fasten the head)
use a knitting-needle – insert it throughout the head and body. Before closing the opening do
not forget to add some more stuffing in the neck.

Attach the arms. Mark the places for the arms on the body – count out 7 rows down from the
neck, mark with the pins. The space between the pins is 16 stitches.
On the arms – count out three rows down and insert a pin grasping three stitches. I insert a
pin at the side, where the increases are.

VIDEO "THREAD FASTENING OF THE ARMS" https://youtu.be/9EkeVCSvLZw


Insert a needle in the back and take it out to a pin, where you will fasten the first arm.
(Leave an end 10 cm long at the back) Attach the arm.

Pierce the body throughout and take out a needle to the second pin.
Attach the second arm.

Take out a thread in the very same place, where you made the first pinhole on the back. Pull
the ends of the threads and draw the arms to the body well. They should be able to keep the
adjusted position.

Make three knots. Cut the treads not very short and hide the ends inside the body.
