For the head sculpting I use the same yarn as for the body:

1. Insert a long threaded needle through the head bottom and pull
it out from the point 1. Then reinsert it into point 2 and pull out
from the head bottom. Make the needle sculpting for the second
eye the same way. Pull the thread ends and tie a knot.

2. Now insert the needle through the head bottom and pull it out
from the point 2. Then reinsert it into point 3 and pull out from the
head bottom. Pull the thread. Make the same for the second eye
and tie a knot. Hide the thread inside the head.
