PATTERN NOTES
Numbers in the brackets in the end of each row/round indicates the total sts you must have in the end of every round.
When the number is written in front of the stitch you must make this number of stitches all in next st, if the number is written after the stitch you must make it in all next stitches indicated by this number. For example : 3sc,ch2- it means make 3 sc in next st, ch2. If it is written with the number after like this sc3,ch2– it means make sc in next 3 sts, ch2.
Start filling in the toy parts before last 5-6 rounds. It will be easier and even.

Sewing all parts together: I prefer firstly to pin all parts, so it will be visible if any part is not centered. I suggest to use safety pins and pin all the parts, than start sewing.
1.Sew the head on the body.
2.Sew the muzzle on the face.
3.Sew the hands.
4.Sew the foots on front part of the body.
- Sew the the inner part into the ears.
- Sew the ears on both sides of the head.
