NOTES –
– Slowly stuff as you go, you want it to be firm but not stretched. I recommend stuffing the body before crocheting the neck.
– 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.

Beak – Sew the beak centered between the eyes with a small amount of stuffing.
Cheeks – With your tapestry needle and yarn for cheeks pass through one stitch on either side of your beak just under the eyes.

(Be sure to stuff the neck and shoulders firmly as you go. This will keep the neck sturdy.)
