Assembly
Sew each of the spheres to each other using your tapestry needle and yarn. Try to work
even whip stitches around the “round 3” areas of each sphere. Tie off and weave in ends as
you go.
Time to assemble the face. Start with the mouth. Position your black felt circle right in the
middle of the Pink sphere and either sew it or glue it down. Then sew your mouth down right
around it. Tie off and weave in the ends when you’re done.
To add the teeth, position them where you want and sew them down, weaving in the ends
as you go, no need to stuff them because they’re so small.
For the eyes, use the mouth as a guide to position them where you want and start sewing
them down. Once you’ve sewn the eye down about 75% of the way start stuffing, continue
sewing and stuffing as needed until the eye is closed off. Repeat for the other eye, tie off and
weave in ends. Either sew or glue down the small felt circle you cut for the pupils.
For the antennae, simply position them on the sides of the head wherever you think they
look good and sew them down. Tie off and weave in ends when you’re finished.
And you’re done!
Happy crocheting 🙂
