felt for eyes, if not you could substitute a dk weight black and white yarn and USF5 hook to emulate the cheek pattern for the eyes doing sc for the white instead of dc, and follow the pattern as written for the black.

The ears are written as how I figured out how to make them as I went, and the best I could explain how. If you have any questions please do not hesitate to message me.
