Pattern Correction

• If you notice uneven stitches or rounds don’t align, count your stitches after each round. Adjust with increases or decreases as needed.
• Always double-check that the head, arms, legs, and ears are symmetrical during assembly for a polished look.

Tips for Success

1. Use safety eyes: If you prefer, safety eyes can replace hand-embroidered eyes. Attach these securely before stuffing the head.
2. Experiment with colors: Try two-tone yarns or stripes for a playful look.
3. Mark your rounds: Use a stitch marker to note the beginning of your rounds while working in continuous spirals.
4. Practice tension: Aim for a consistent stitch tension to ensure a professional finish.
