Assembling

Legs: After you’ve finished crocheting all pieces, start sewing the legs onto the body. Start sewing the first leg onto the body directly over the edge that was created by the round that was crocheted only into the back loop. Sew the Black leg to the Black spot that goes to the stitch edge and the White leg slightly offset under the second Black spot, about 6 to 7 stitches apart from each other.

Arms: Sew the arms left and right onto the body, 1 stitch row under the “neck”. Do not sew the arms directly over the legs but slightly behind the legs.

Eyes: Attach the safety eyes after the 7th stitch row counting from the top center of the head. The eyes are 4 stitches apart from each other. Back to the crochet pattern.

Muzzle: Sew the muzzle centered onto the head, just below the eyes. Then push two holes into the muzzle with a tapestry needle on the right and left side, as shown in the pictures. These represent the nostrils.
