(3 DC, Picot, 3 DC) × 19 times, work a slip stitch, cut yarn and weave in.

For the green part of the skirt, join yarn in the front loops of round 7 of
the body, follow the white skirt pattern.

- Head decoration and eyes sculpting -

Do not pull too tight. (I got distracted by my camera and pulled a bit too tight)
1). Fix the thread under an eye. Insert a needle under the eye and come out at the nape,
1-2 rounds below the eyes level. Pull on the thread. Step 1 st to the side and enter the
head, come out under the eye. Repeat the cinching. Repeat the same with the second eye.
2). Also make sculpting in the upper eyes corners, between eyes.
Pull on the thread, but not too tight.
3). Embroider a nose using the main skin color yarn.
4). Embroider eyelashes in the eyes corners using sewing thread.

 - Hair -
Prepare the strands of the following length:
~ 35 cm - 12 pcs (6 for each side hairs)
~ 30 cm - 4 pcs (2 for each bottom side hairs)
~ 10 cm - 12 pcs for the fringe.

Pin the hair attaching points. Count 4 rounds down from the
top of the head. Arrange the pins on sides of the head so that,
there were 12 Sc (between pins, on the front) left (fringe place)

6 Instagram - @bestevenn.hm
Attach hair. Fold a strand in half, and pull it through the head in the pinned point using
hook. Fix it as shown in the photo. Attach the top side row of hair first. Then the bottom
one. For the bottom row of hair, count 12 rounds down from the top row of hair, parallel
to the second to last and last strands of the top section. Cue braids. Trim the ends of the
hair with scissors. Make fringe using the same principle.
Trim the fringe with scissors; leave it about 2.5 cm long
