When a round or row mentions “around/across” you will be working that whole sequence from that round/row around the entire piece. (EX: sc in next st, 2sc in next st, around = sc, inc, sc, inc,…)

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.
