Cut the yarn, pull through and sew closed.
Collapse the body into itself to form two halves that can be swapped by folding inside out.
Sew on the faces (see Part 7 below)

Sewing Together
- (1:29:18)
Sew on the tail first into the stitches from Rnd 17 just in the middle of the white section. Try to line it up just between where the colors change so that the ends of the Rnds are the back.
Next sew on the legs so they are equally spaced around the body.
Now sew on the Mouth Muzzles on each half of the body on the opposite side of where you changed colors and try to get the muzzle just in the middle of where you changed from Color to White. Try to get both muzzles lined up with each other between the front legs.
Embroider on a nose and mouth on each muzzle using Black yarn. I like putting a frown on one and a smile on the other, but use whatever emotions you want!
To add eyes either embroider them around the muzzle in the color section of the halves using black yarn. Or try using felt to create larger more animated eyes with felt (see page 6)!
Sew on the ears flat on the sides of the head on each half. Try sewing the ears on to emphasize the emotion your showing. Like putting them slightly back if there’s an angry face, or crooked for a silly corgi!
08
Felt Face Option
For adding eyes using felt, print this page using the eye template below to cut out shapes in felt.
For attaching the felt:
1. Cut two of each eye template out of black felt.
2. Position the eyes on the face.
3. Thread a sewing needle with black thread and whip stitch around the perimeter of the felt eyes.
4. Use a hole punch to punch out four circles out of white felt.
5. Glue the white felt to the eyes.
