Assembly

Before filling the head, attach the cheeks with sewing pins where you like them, then attach the safety eyes and nose. Remove the cheeks. They will be sewn on after the head is filled and sewn to the body.
Fill the body and sew to the head.
Place the mane on your head, folding it in half to define the center, and pin it down the center of your head. Pin the sides of the mane before sewing.
For the hands: Fold the hand opening in half so that the middle claw faces forward. Sew with a seam across the edge, then sew to the body at the neck. Pull the remaining ends of the thread from both hands to the place where the tail will be.
For the feet: Fold the leg opening in half so that all three claws are facing forward. Sew across the edge, then sew the legs to the body, following the row in which you knitted the back loop. Pull the remaining thread from one of the legs to where the tail will be.
Weave three strands to create a tail. Leave the tip about 2.5 cm and tie it in a knot. Tie on a piece of brown yarn and use scissors to trim all the threads. Fluff all ends.
Sew the ears in front of the mane.
Sew on the cheeks. You can fill them a little with scraps of yarn of the same color.
For the mouth there are 2 options:
- first – 4 ch and attach in the right place;
- second – attach the thread under the left cheek, 4 ch, attach conn. Art. on the other hand, now knit from the back of the chain, going back (about 10 sc) and sew on the bottom.
