The Fox pillow is knit in the round from bottom up. Working in MC, close the pillow with the three needle technique. Continue the flap, working back and forth in MC, decreasing sts to shape the nose, then continue with C1, increasing sts for the reverse side of the nose flap. Join the two layers with I-cord edge, adding a loop for the button. Embroider the eyes and whiskers. Knit the ears separately and sew on to the top of the pillow. Zipper is sewn to the CO edge.
