ASSEMBLY
• Stuff the body – the bottom of the
body should sit flat.
• Sew the body to the head.
• Stuff the tail. It should curve as you
stuff it.
• Sew the tail to the back of the body
on an angle (see picture).
The side of the tail should sit
between rounds 7&8 of the body.
The back of the tail should sit in the
middle of the back of the body.
• Sew three toes on each of the feet. Note: I didn’t make foot pads or a belly patch
because it would add too much bulk to the bottom/it wouldn’t lay flat.
• Pin the legs to the sides of the body to make sure that they sit flat & sew them to the
body.
@shea.crochet sheacrochetxx@gmail.com etsy.com/ca/shop/sheacrochetxx
• Pin the tail patch on the tail & sew it to the tail. When you sew up the curved side, go
under two stitches at a time so the tail patch curves with the tail.
• Stuff the arms lightly.
• Sew the arms to the sides of the body.
• Sew three claws on the arm that won’t be holding
the leaf.
• Embroider two lines for the eyes using black
embroidery floss. The middle of the eyes should be
in the first & last increase in round 13 of the head.
They should go over approximately 3 stitches.
• Using black thread, embroider a line for the eyelid
one stitch above the eye & about 3 stitches up.
Next, embroider two nostrils between rounds 15&16
of the head.
• Cut a bunch of pieces of red & yellow yarn about 5
inches long.
• Insert your crochet hook into the stitches from the
top of the tail & pull up a loop.
Pull the tail through the loop to form a knot. Repeat
around the tail, making one half of the tail yellow &
the other half of the tail red.
@shea.crochet sheacrochetxx@gmail.com etsy.com/ca/shop/sheacrochetxx
• Using your sewing needle, break the yarn
apart a bit so it’s easier to brush out.
• Using a wired pet brush, brush out the yarn on
the end of the tail.
Trim the ends a bit to shape it.
Optional: use hair gel or hair spray to hold the
tail in place.
• Fold the stem of the leaf in half & pull the rest
of the tail through to the middle of the stem.
Pin half of the stem to the leaf. It should sit
approximately three quarters of the way up
the middle of the leaf.
• Sew the stem up one side of the middle of the
leaf, & then back down the other side.
• Weave the rest of the tail through the stem to
the bottom of the stem.
• Sew one or two stitches of the stem to the
hand. Pin the other half of the stem to the
head. It should sit just behind one of the eyes.
Sew the stem to the head.
• Sew the other two claws to the hand in front
of the stem.
