The main cosy body is created using two strands of DK yarn together.
All there pieces are created using a single strand of DK yarn. All pieces are knitted flat and sewn up afterwards.

I used King Cole cuddles but any fluffy yarn can be substituted.

Toy stuffing
6mm eyes
Glue (optional) I use it for the eyes.
Bell ( optional ) there are instructions for a knitted bobble.
3 small pom-poms or buttons.
