5 ASSEMBLING
1. Attach the head to the middle of the body.
And sew it, firmly as you can, so it doesn’t move when shaking [fig 12].
2. Straighten the mane and sew it tightly to the head. The mane should
frame the muzzle in a circle, in the upper part pass through the middle
of the head, and in the lower part pass between the head and the body
in front. The ends of the mane should converge at the bottom of the
head (if the length permits, then make a slight overlap) [fig 13].

3. Fold the ears in half lengthwise. Sew the ears between rows 6 and 9
[fig 14,15].

4. Take black yarn and embroider the nose and eyes. Please, refer to the
pictures! [fig 16].
Embroider the eyes at a distance of 1 sc to the side of the horizontal line
of the nose with inverted check marks.
Make sure the muzzle is symmetrical J
Also, if desired, we embroider check marks on the forehead to match
the mane.

Please sew all pieces tightly because a baby will
play with it!
Do not leave toys unattended in the crib!
