NOTES
Munin’s head is worked from the trunk to the neck in one piece. The ears are knit separately and attached after the head is made. Significant short row shaping is used for both the head and ears. The optional picot trim is added after the head and ears are assembled. Munin can be made smaller or bigger by changing your yarn and needle sizes - just ensure the fabric is knit densely enough to prevent the stuffing from coming through.
