For this project you’ll make the limbs first then you will begin the head & work from the top down attaching them at intervals. Once the body is complete, you’ll make the eyes/ears/tail & attach them. The final step will be to embroider on his facial features & you are free to embellish him as you wish.

For stripes, I recommend a self striping yarn. Color changes become tedious as this project progresses.
