Read me ~> Work in continuous rounds, do not join. I used Red Heart Comfort yarn with a 4.50
mm hook. If you crochet more on the loose side then use a smaller hook so you don't get gaps and
stuffing showing through the stitches. Have any questions or if you come across a mistake in the
Read me ~> How to read the rows: Each row has a sequence as given below. Example: 1sc then
2sc in next st means repeat that sequence 1sc then 2sc in next st followed by 1sc then 2sc in next
st over and over to the end of that particular row. The number inside the parentheses ( ~ ) is the
number of stitches you should have at the end of that particular row.
Read me ~> It's a good idea to add in a marker at the end of row 2 and move that marker at the
end of every row. I just use a short length of yarn and pull it through the last stitch I put in at the
end of every row.

Depending on the colors you choose, you can add in the spots as you go along but if you use yellow with brown
spots then it's best to add in the spots after the doll has been stuffed and closed. I show how to do both methods
in the video tutorial. View video at 12:51 for how to add them before it's stuffed and hear the reasons why it might
be best to wait until it's stuffed and view at 28:04 on how to add in the spots after the doll has been stuffed.
