Tail
Color: 002 Natural White
The tail is made as an i-cord with 4 stitches.
In the tutorial she makes the i-cord with 3 stitches, whereas I have made mine with one extra stitch. Make the i-cord 5 cm long and end with a sl st pulling the yarn through all 4 stitches on the hook. Now, cut 2 strands of brown yarn and thread the tapestry needle with both strands. Pull this strand through the beginning of the i-cord and make two knots in the brown yarn. Cut off the brown yarn to the desired length.
Then attach it to Konrad by sewing the white end of the tail onto the body.
Assembling
Body:
Stuff the body tight to make it firm.
Head:
The head must point downwards a little. It can be helpful to pin the head to the body first.
Sew through the stitches of the body and then through the head. And finally, stuff some extra
stuffing into the neck before closing it completely to avoid a wobbly head. Weave in ends
thoroughly.
Horns:
Stuff a bit of stuffing into the horns. Sew the horns onto Konrad’s head. Place the horns
about 10 rows above the eyes with about 6 stitches in between. Weave in ends thoroughly.
Ears:
First, sew the rose part onto each ear. Sew on the ears about 10 rows behind the eyes with
about 20 stitches in between. Ears and horns must be in line. Weave in ends thoroughly.
Legs:
Place the legs under the tummy. They should point outward a bit. Sew on the legs about 3
rounds from the beginning of the body. Weave in ends thoroughly.
Arms:
Leave a small space at the top without stuffing. Sew on the arms about 1 round from the top
of the neck. Weave in ends thoroughly.
Tummy:
Sew on the tummy at the center of Konrad’s body. Sew through the front loop only. Be careful
to keep the tummy flat while sewing it on to avoid that it bulges out. Weave in ends
thoroughly. TIP: Sew the tummy on after attaching the arms and legs, this will make it easier
to place the tummy nicely.
Spots:
Place the spots on the body as you like. Sew through both loops when you sew the spots on.
Weave in ends thoroughly.
Tail:
Sew the tail onto the center of the backside. Weave in ends thoroughly.
Enjoy!
