For the first leg (left leg), end rnd 55 with a sl st, cut and fasten off

For the second leg (right leg), continue rnd 55 until you have come to the
center of the inside of the leg. This is to shift the starting point. I did 18sc
extra. Do the number of sc you need to end in the correct place. After you
have ended rnd 55 in the correct place, ch 4.

Rnd 57-65 : sc around (66)

Rnd 66 : (9sc, dec) x6 (60)

Cut and fasten off

Make the wire frame. Cut two sections of wire 23 inches each. Holding both
sections together, (measure 10 inches) bend in a 90 degree angle, (measure 3
inches) bend again. This forms the legs. Cut two sections 8 inches long. Holding
both sections together wrap about an inch around the center of the leg section
(where the crotch would be). This forms the body. Cut two sections 17 inches
long. This is the arm. Holding both sections center it at the top of the body and
using the body section fold about an inch around the arms. Wrap the entire
frame in tape to secure it.

Insert the wire frame into the legs. Carefully work the frame down the
center of the stuffing. Stuff the rest of the body as you go.

Tip : using the wooden dowel from the fiber fill, twist back and forth while
slowly pushing down all the way to the bottom. Remove the dowel leaving
a void in the stuffing to insert the wire frame into.

Rnd 87-94 : sc around (48)

At the end of rnd 94, continue to sc until you are at the center of the back.
This is to shift the start point for the next rnd. I did 8sc extra. Do the
number of sc you need to end in the correct place. You will be connecting
the arms in rnd 95. When connecting the arms pay close attention to the
position of the arms. Before beginning rnd 95, put the arms on the wire
frame. Work the frame down the center of stuffing in each arm. Use the
same tip as with the legs.

Rnd 95 : 10sc, (sc into a st from the left arm and a st of the body) x4, 20sc,

(sc into a st from the right arm and a st from the body) x4, 10sc

End round 100 with a sl st, cut and fasten off.

In the front, cut a slit in the brown yarn, use the super glue to secure the
edges of the cut and fold one side down, glueing it to the body, so that it
appears to be flopped over. After the glue dries, use black makeup over
the glue and cut section to make it appear dirty.

Return to the bottom of the shirt, attach Brown yarn at the back, in the
front loops that were available after you finished round

Photos are above

Now put the mask on the head lining up the nose of the mask and the
nose of the head. After you are satisfied with the placement of the mask,
use a pin to mark where the safety eye will go on the head. Also mark
where the ears should go.

Remove the mask and sew the eyes and ears onto the head.

The safety eye goes into the mr of the crochet eye. After the eye is sewn to
the head, remove the safety eye and place glue in the place it was in,
insert the safety eye, holding in place for a moment while the glue dries.

Put the mask back on, secure it in place by sewing it to the head along the
mask straps.

Machete
Grey and black yarn, 3.5mm hook. Gauge
isn’t important.

Blade

Using cardboard cut out the shape of the

blade. I use a cereal box so I doubled the
cardboard and taped it with tape. If you
use a thicker cardboard, you don’t need
two pieces.
