Place eyes between rounds 8 and 9, leaving 10 holes between them. Place them above the
stitch markers. Look to pictures on pg. 4 for reference. If you want the sunken eye look, do not
place the backs of the eyes on until round 15.
11-12. sc in each st around

14. (sc, dec) x 14= 28
15. (5 sc, dec) x 4= 24
Place the eyelashes on the back of the eyes before placing the eyes. Now for the eyes. Stuff the
head well. Cut a long piece of yarn and remove the eyes. Place the needle in the hole where the
first eye was and insert the needle into a hole next to the eye hole. Go back and forth between
each eye hole repeating the process from the first eye. Pull slightly on the yarn after going
through each hole. Do this about 3 times on each side until you reach the look you want. Follow
the pictures for help. There is also a youtube video I have for extra help on this process.

To place the backs of the eyes you will need to remove most of the stuffing to place the
washers on the eyes then re stuff it.
