OTHER MATERIALS NEEDED:

  • a long piece of black thread yarn for eye embroidery
  • polyester fibre fill

EQUIPMENT NEEDED:

  • crochet hook: I used 3mm = C/2, if using different weight of yarn then refer to hook size recommendations on the yarn but go one size smaller
  • scissors, yarn needle, pins with large heads, stitch marker or thin yarn to use instead
