Super Bulky/14ply chenille yarn: Dolce, 130 y / 100 g:
beige: 3 balls ( uses 2 1/2)
light beige / light peach: 1 ball (uses less than one)
nose embroidery: brown
eye embr: sport yarn: Jeans (Джинс), 175 y / 100 g: black
Strong thread for sculpting of the muzzle in a matching color.
Long doll making needle for sculpting the eyes and muzzle.
4.0 mm hook

Held yarn double.

Used 18.0 amigurumi cat eyes.
I don’t make sleeping yarn animals because, well, the eyes are closed all the time. If the stuffie has open eyes, it’s more playful.

I didn’t have a long needle for all the sculpting, but I did get some shaping for the eyes with a tapestry needle. I used the project yarn for that step as well.
