Notes

This is only the second pattern I’ve designed and typed up, feel free to adjust. I think the head should have been a little wider, or perhaps I should have just sewn the eyes on a little closer together. No special stitches, BLO back loops only, is just for a bit of definition between ‘limb’ and ‘clothing’. I use magic rings to start and usually wait a few rounds before fully tightening as it’s easier to work with. I find small stitch markers are most helpful. I didn’t count every repetition so ‘around’ simply means repeat the stitch to the end. The number at the end is the number of stitches you should have, although if you’re 1 out I wouldn’t worry, especially towards the end of the body (see note where you sew on button)

The front loop only round provides a bit of definition, like a button edge, choose the side you prefer and embroider a cross, I went over it twice to stand out more.
