HANDLING.
1.Sew the muzzle on top of the convex cheeks. Just be guided by the marker so that everything sews symmetrically. Sew on half of the muzzle and add filler there, then sew to the end. Fill the muzzle medium, but not a little, otherwise it will squeeze a lot when tightening.
2. Let’s start to tighten. We introduce the needle at the very bottom of the morden in the center. Here we will have a mouth, and we withdraw into the right eye, retreat a couple of loops and again return to the mouth, repeat all this with the left eye. You can walk through the same pattern of pull-ups one more time in order to secure the dog’s mimicry for sure.
3. And now we take a black thread and drag the muzzle exactly in half.
Fix the thread in the place where we will have a “leather” nose, and right from above along the muzzle we go down into the mouth, and then return to the nose. Pull the thread so that the muzzle is clearly divided in half. Attach the thread on the nose. The knot will not be visible, we so glue the plastic nose.
4. Sew on the ears just above the cheeks, there are such narrow places on both sides.
5.Glue the spout. In the dimple where our mouth is, we glue the tongue.
We knit the lower lip from the main yarn. 6sc knit in a circle and try on all the time relative to the tongue. It is necessary that the tongue lie flat on the lip, i.e. the lip should be no less than the tongue, but not more than it, approximately the same.
6.After the tightening, we have recesses for the eyes. The choice of the peephole is yours.
Try on all the eyes you have, and determine which eyes are most suitable for him. If there are no such eyes, then there is another option for the peephole. It is necessary to mold two balls from plastic so that they fit your dog in size. Press black half-beads into these balls, such concave places will remain. We will then glue the half-beads into these recesses after the plastic has hardened.
You can glue the eyelashes to the finished eyes, and then glue the eyes with eyelashes on the dog’s face.
I was still knitting eyebrows. Since my yarn was shaggy, I just knitted
chain of 5 ch.
Sew on eyebrows, preferably with bobbin thread matching the color. But if your yarn is very shaggy, then you can glue them with transparent glue, only very carefully, without excess glue.
LEGS.
2 details.
We start knitting with the finishing yarn (the color of the sole). If you want the animal to stand firmly, then you will need to cut and insert the insoles of dense material into the sole.
9 ch then we knit around the chain

Cut out the insoles. I dripped a few drops of clear glue onto the insoles and glued them to my tied feet. This will help the dog to stand very steadily!
We move on to the main yarn.
