- 9mm safety eyes
- Black crochet/embroidery thread for eyelashes (optional)

Abbreviations – US terminology
MC- Magic circle
SC- Single crochet
SC INC- Single crochet increase
INV DEC- Invisible decrease
DC – Double crochet
St(s)- Stitch(es)
Sl st – Slip stitch
NOTES –
– Slowly stuff as you go, you want it to be firm but not stretched. You will be working in the round; I like to use a stitch marker at the beginning of each round.
– The body and head will be made as one piece. I recommend tight stitches and firm stuffing to help avoid a wobbly neck.
