hook:

Crochet 1 row of sc around the perimeter of the emblem, in the corners of the detail crochet one increase.
Cut the thread, fasten off, hide the end. Embroider the red line around the perimeter of the emblem (I
used Alize Cotton Gold №56, 2 threads of 4). After that, embroider the letter «S» in the same way.
If you haven't used the eyes with stalks, it’s time to glue them. I use eyes with stulks, but glue them.
I like it better this way, because the plug doesn’t interfere with the design of the face in the future, and a
Firstly mark the points 1 and 2 between the 18th and 19th rows of the head (the space between points
is 10 sc (photo 21)). Now take a thick knitting needle or something similar (I use knitting needle No5.5 (5.5
mm)) and start to gradually expand the crocheted fabric at these points (photo 22).
Now take glue and drip inside the resulting hole. Also, lubricate the inner surface of the eye with
glue. Insert the eyes there and press on them, wait a couple of minutes (photo 23).
11
Can proceed to the design of the face (photo 24). Embroider the whites of the eyes with a white
thread (I used whole thread Yarn Art Jeans №62). Embroider the nose with a flesh thread (I used a whole
thread Alize Cotton Gold, the same as when crocheting the head) between the 20th and 21st rows of the
head, the width of the nose is 3 sc. Embroider the cheeks with a red thread (I used Alize Cotton Gold №56,
2 threads of 4) between the 21st and 22nd rows, the width of the cheek is 2 sc. Embroider the mouth and
Arrange the hair so that the bangs are placed, as shown at the photo 25, 26 and sew.
The left (looking at the back of the head) edge of the panties turned out to be uneven on both sides.
In order to "smooth" this edge, I propose to arrange it as shown in (photo 27, 28).
Sew the arms between the 28th and 29th rows of the body (photo 29, 30). I recommend first steam-
ing them.

Sew the cloak to the last row of the body
