Belly: Remember to flip him upside down so the stitches (and decreases) aren’t backwards. In future, would also modify decreases to be less pointy. Maybe stop at 8 and sew closed at that point. (4 facing 4 to make a small straight line for shape, not gathered round)

Attaching trunk:
Rnd 20 as written (12 sts from trunk)
Rnd 21 as written but only 18 sts from trunk (66 sts)
Skip Rnd 22, sc rnds 23-24 as written, resume following pattern (now one less row than written)
