ASSEMBLE
      I recommend pinning the pieces before sewing them to assure you have them in the position you like best before sewing. (Most people prefer to use the yarn at the end of the finished pieces to sew them in place, but I use matching thread).

      TIP...For anything I'll be using felt, I prefer to first sketch it out on 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.

     TAIL...stuff it lightly. Find the center of the back of the body and match the color changes from the body to the tail.

     FEET...stuff them lightly. From the tail count 8 stitches (the red front loops left unworked from round 14) on each side and place them between rounds 13 and 14.

     ARMS...no need to stuff them. Align them to the feet and place them on rounds 11 and 12.

     SNOUT...lightly stuff it. The hdc's section goes facing downward. Place it between rounds 11 and 13.

     EYES...sew both pieces together by 4 stitches. Place the safety eyes in the position you like best. Sew the piece right above the snout between rounds 6 and 10.

     TOP of the SNOUT...place it above the snout. Sew in place.

     TURF...place it on the top center of the head/body.

     PATCHES...using yellow felt, cut out 2 small rectangles. Place one on the bottom of the snout on round 16. The other goes on top of the tail.

     TEETH...using white felt, cut out 3 small triangles. Place one in the center of the upper jaw and the other two on either side of the lower jaw.

     NOSTRILS...using black felt, cut out 2 small triangles and place them on the upper portion of the snout.

     DETAILS on the FEET...with black embroidery floss or thread. Embroider 2 lines on each foot for his toes.

ASSEMBLE
     I recommend pinning the pieces before sewing them to make sure you have them in the position you like best before sewing. (Most people prefer to use the yarn at the end of the finished pieces to sew them in place, but I use matching thread).

     FEET...try to find the position you like best. I place mine between rounds 17 and 18; approx. 0.50" apart. Only sew the 2 first rounds from the feet to the body. 
     WINGS...align them with the feet and place them on rounds 10 and 11; 3 stitches between the eyes and the wings. Only sew the top portion leaving the rest of the wing unsown so he can flap around.

     BEAK...there's no need to stuff it. Place it in the center of the eyes between rounds 10 and 11.

     TUFT underneath the beak...place it underneath the beak on round 12. The rounded part goes facing down and the flat side upward. Only sew the flat side.

     TAIL...if you haven't already, stuff it lightly. Find the center of the back of the body and place it between rounds 14 and 16. Make sure that the part with the increases is facing downwards.

     CREST...stuff it lightly. In the section where we made the dc's (the part that's sticking out), face it towards the left side. The crest will be placed up to round 5.

     Using white embroidery floss/thread/yarn, embroider a curvy line like a wave in the front center of the crest on round 7.

     LONG and SHORT TUFT...place them in the center and on round 9 of the crest. The shorter tuft goes behind the longer tuft.
