When making toys the right side looks like this:
If there are no special notes, the toy is crocheted under
both parts of the loop. In some rows, there are special
notes: ‘into the front loop only’ or ‘into the back loop
only’. In such case, you need to follow these
instructions.
And the backside looks like this: Tip
If your wire for the frame is not white, you can wrap it
with plaster, so it will not show through the stuffing.
Use only copper wire with plastic covering for the frame
as copper can better stand bending compared to
aluminum.

Measure length of legs being stretched-out (20 cm in

Tightening
Challenge with the face is the ‘tightening’. There

should be enough of a bridge on the nose. Eye socket
should be big enough to allow eyes to sink in, if that
shaping isn’t correct it throws the whole face off. Take
the time to make sure the tightening are distinct enough
before continue.
Make eye sockets and brows on the head using

tightening. Pull out tapestry needle with strong thread
at the right side of the head (approx. at rnd 22) and
make tightening approx. 1 cm wide, pulling together
opposite sides of the head.
Make brows.
