Assembly
Sew on eyes to one of the panels, this will be your front panel. Embellish mouth and scar above eye with black yarn and tapestry needle.
Next we will sew limbs on by putting them between the two body panels.
Use the tail ends of the limbs to sew through all pieces of fabric (front panel, limb, and back panel).
Angle the arms down and outward a bit. Place the legs in the center of the body with a small gap between. *See photo as guideline.*
Once the limbs are secured between the front and back panels, we will start to crochet around the body to enclose it.
Start by attaching green yarn to the left side of the body where the green yarn meets the black yarn. *See photo.*
Ch 1, sc crochet evenly through both panels around the body. Make 3 sc in each corner. Join to first sc and fasten off.
*Before crocheting up the last side, stuff with poly-fil. Do not overstuff.
*When you get to the limbs, sc on the front panel layer only.
*Switch yarn color as needed around the body.
