SPECIAL STITCHES/TECHNIQUE
Other side of the foundation chains - this VIDEO explains how to do this technique that we'll be doing for the ears and snout.

HEAD/BODY starting with medium gray
  Rnd 1: 6sc in magic ring (6)
  Rnd 2: 2sc in each st around (12)
  Rnd 3: sc in next st, 2sc in next st around (18)
  Rnd 4: sc in next 2 sts, 2sc in next st around (24)

  Rnd 17: sc in next 2 sts, sc2tog around (18)
  Rnd 18: sc in next st, sc2tog around (12)
  Rnd 19: sc2tog around (6)

FEET with medium gray; make 2
  Rnd 1: 6sc in magic ring (6)
  Rnd 2: 3sc in next st, sc in next 2 sts around (10)
  Rnd 3-4: sc in each st around (10)
  Row 1: stuffed lightly, flatten to match up the stitches and sc across, ch1, turn (5)
  Row 2: sc2tog, sc in next st, sc2tog (3)
F/O, secure and weave in the ends.

ARMS with medium gray; make 2
  Rnd 1: 5sc in magic ring (5)
  Rnd 2-3: sc in each st around (5)
  Rnd 4: sc2tog, sc in next 3 sts (4)

OUTER EARS with medium gray; make 2
  Rnd 1: ch8, sc in 2nd ch from hook, sc in next ch, hdc in next 2 chs, dc in next 2 chs, 6dc in next ch, other side of the foundation chains dc in next 2 chs, hdc in next 2 chs, sc in next ch, 2sc in last ch (19)
  Rnd 2: sc in next 6 sts, hdc in next st, 2hdc in next st, hdc in next 2 sts, 2hdc in next st, hdc in next st, sc in next 7 sts, sl st into 1st st (21)
F/O, secure and weave in the ends.

INNER EARS with fuchsia; make 2
  Rnd 1: ch8, sc in 2nd ch from hook, sc in next ch, hdc in next 2 chs, dc in next 2 chs, 6dc in next ch, other side of the foundation chains dc in next 2 chs, hdc in next 2 chs, sc in next ch, 2sc in last ch (19)
F/O, secure and weave in the ends.

SNOUT with light gray
  Rnd 1: ch7, sc in 2nd ch from hook, sc in next 4 chs, 4sc in next ch, other side of the foundation chains sc in next 4 chs, 3sc in last ch (16)
  Rnd 2: sc in next 7 sts, 3sc in next st around (20)
F/O, secure and weave in the ends.

TAIL with medium gray
  Row 1: ch6, sc in 2nd ch from hook and across (5)
F/O, secure and weave in the ends.

BOW with fuchsia
  Row 1: ch5, dc in 3rd ch from hook and across (3)
F/O, secure and weave in ends. With a strand of fuchsia yarn, tie it in the middle of the bow and keep wrapping it in the center. Then weave in that strand of yarn in the back.


ASSEMBLE
     I recommend pinning the pieces in place before sewing them to make sure you have them in the position you like best before sewing. (Most people like to use the yarn at the end of the finished pieces to sew them in place, but I personally like to use matching thread).
     TIP...For anything that I’m going to be using felt, I like to first sketch it out on a white paper and make a stencil of what I need. Then cut it out. Then tape the stencil to the felt and cut it out.
     FEET...try to find the position you like best. I place mine between round 17 and 18; approx. 0.50" apart. Only sew the 2 last rows from the feet (the flat area) to the body.

     INNER & OUTER EARS...place the wrong side of the inner ear to the wrong side of the outer ear. Sew both pieces together by matching up the stitches like in the picture below. Since the inner ear is one round smaller this will help the outer ear roll in a bit. Repeat the same process to the other ear pieces.

     Place the ears on round 6 of the head/body. You'll only be sewing them to round 6 - 7 and leaving the rest unsew.

     ARMS...there's no need to stuff them. Align them with the feet and place them on round 11 and 12. The ears will be overlapping them by a tiny bit.

     SNOUT...place it in the center of the front of the head/body between round 10 and 13.

     ADDING HAIR to the TAIL...with black yarn cut 2 strands (4" length each). Fold a strand in half and pass it through one end of the tail and pull through a loop, pull tight. Repeat with the remaining strand. Now that we have added all the strands of hair to the tail, using a comb or wire brush and start combing every strand of hair. This would make it look like fur. Finally, trim to the desired length.
     BOW to TAIL...place the bow between the tail and hair we added. Sew in place.

     TAIL to BODY...place it in round 14 over on the back of the body, try to find the middle. Using black felt make a tiny circle (this will be the nail that keeps the tail in place) and glue it on the tail like in the picture below.

    HAIR on top of his HEAD...first find the center of the head. With black yarn, you'll want to cut 4" strands; approx. 8 strands. We'll be placing the strands evenly between round 2 through 6. Fold a strand in half and pass it through and pull through a loop, pull tight. Repeat with the remaining strands. Now that we have added all the strands of hair to the head, using a comb or wire brush and start combing every strand of hair. This would make it look like fur. Trim to the desired length. Finally, style it to your liking.

     LINE down the FACE...using black thread or embroidery floss, embroider a line from the tip of the hair and all the way down to the end of the snout (1st image). You're going to be making 3 small lines across the long line down the face (2nd image).

     EYES...using black felt make 2 circles. Place the black circles on round 9; approx. 0.75" apart.
     EYEBROWS...using black thread or embroidery floss, embroider them just right above the eyes on round 6 to 7. You can make these however you like, but I simply made a slanted line.
     NOSTRILS...using black thread or embroidery floss, embroider slanted lines on the snout.
