Now it’s time to do the color change for the T-shirt. Work with 2 colors during
the next 7 rows. Change the color after each row:

24) *4 sc, inv. dec * = 30

Now stuff the body so it’s nice and soft
27) * sc, inv. dec * = 12

Assembly:
1) Position the ears on each side of the head between row 3 -7
2) Position the arms on each side of the body between row 14 & 15
3) Position the legs and the bottom between row 24 & 25.
4) Embroider a nose between row 11 & 12 – stitch 4 times across 3 sc, go 1 stitch
down in the middle to create the “mouth”
5) Embroider eyes between row 9 & 10. Stretch the string slightly to row 11, and
do 4 eyelashes across the string in 4 sc’s in row 12. Eyes should be 6 sc apart.
