Assembling the toy

Sew the nose on around the pin in turn taking the stitches of the head and nose. Try

Note: to make the seam seem more neat use sewing thread in the passing color or
divide the main yarn in two and use the half to attach the nose.

Sew or glue on the eyes one row up the nose - the distance between the eyes
should be 5 sc.

point of the joining of the legs, the distance between upper inner extreme points
of the pockets should be 4 sc.
The lower edge of the pocket should be distributed over 5 sc, and the upper edge
over 8 sc.
Sew the pockets on with the help of small stitches taking in turns the stitches of
the body and pocket. Pay attention that you are sewing smaller circumference of
the pocket along the upper edge than along the lower edge and because of that,
the pockets will bulge. Then sew on the three small black buttons on the
overalls.
