General Instructions

• Work all stitches in both loops unless the pattern instructs otherwise.
• This pattern is worked in one continuous spiral. Do not join rounds unless the pattern indicates otherwise (in other words, do not slip stitch and chain to start a new round).
• Use a stitch marker to keep track of where one round ends and the next begins. I prefer to place my stitch marker in the last stitch of the round.

Attaching with thread vs. yarn tail
For a cleaner look, I opted to cut the yarn tails short on the inner ears and weave them into the back of the work, then attach the inner ears to the ears with matching thread. However, you can also attach them using a yarn needle and the yarn tail. It’s up to you!

How to Indent the Eyes
Cut a strand of yarn approximately 18″ long. Tie a large, secure knot in one end and thread the other end through your yarn needle.Insert your needle through the back opening of the head and sew between the two spots where you’ll be placing your safety eyes (marked with strands of yarn).Pull your strand of yarn taut, which will create indents. Fasten off with a knot and hide your yarn tail inside the head.

How to Crochet the Tail Tuft
With dark orange yarn, create a slip knot on your hook. slst into the first stitch, chain 6, then slst into the same stitch.Repeat this process in the 2 remaining stitches across: slst into the next stitch, chain 6, then slst into the same stitch.Fasten off and hide the yarn tails inside the work with a yarn needle.
