Marisol Mouse

The document provides instructions for knitting a Marisol Mouse toy in 3 sentences or less: The instructions begin with increasing stitches evenly over three double pointed needles to form the triangular shape of the mouse's head, then continuing to increase stitches on specific needles to shape the face and add stuffing before decreasing stitches to close up the back of the head. Separate instructions are given for knitting the ears, body, arms, feet, and tail to complete the mouse toy.

Row 9: (K4, kfb) around. Row 10: Knit. Row 11: (K5, kfb) around. Your work should now look like a tiny pyramid. The point is the tip of the nose, needle 1 is the bottom left half of the face, needle 2 is the forehead, needle 3 is the bottom right half of the face. There are 7 stitches on each needle.

Row 12: Needle 1 - k6, kfb. Needle 2 - Knit. Needle 3 - kfb, k6. Row 13: Needle 1 - k7, kfb. Needle 2- Knit. Needle 3 - kfb, k7. Row 14: Needle 1- k8, kfb. Needle 2 - knit. Needle 3 - kfb, k8. Row 15: Needle 1 - k9, kfb. Needle 2 - knit. Needle 3 - kfb, k9. Row 16-18: Knit. I embroidered on my eyes and nose at this point. Having the back of the head open made it easier. If you want to wait to do it, that's fine too. Now is also a good time to stuff the head, before you close up the opening. Rows 19 and 20: K2tog around - 7 st remaining. Cut yarn and thread it through remaining stitches, pulling tight to close. Tie off and pull end into head.
