PATTERN NOTES - must-read...
 Numbers in ( ) at the end of each round/row indicate the total number of stitches.
 Always use stitch markers to mark your rounds.
 There's no need to sl st and/or ch when going to the next round unless stated to do so.
 Always do the 1st stitch where you slip stitch from the previous round.
 The chain, in the beginning, does NOT count as one stitch unless stated otherwise.
 You slip stitch on the first sc, not on top of the chain 1.

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).
     TIP...For anything that I’m going to be using felt, I like 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.
     HEAD/BODY PATCH…using an aran color felt, create the center patch. I made 2 circles intertwined and cut out a triangle on top for the face. Before gluing it in place, embroider the eyes, mouth, and teeth using embroidery floss/thread or yarn. Place it between rounds 6 and 17.
     FEET…if you have not to stuff them yet, do so now. Place them between rounds 18 and 19. With light brown felt cut out 2 small circles and glue them at the bottom of the feet.
     EARS...if you have not stuffed them yet, do so now. Place them between rounds 4 and 7.
     ARMS...theirs no need to stuff them. Align them to the ears and place them on rounds 12 and 13.


GLOSSARY:
