2. Hook No. 2 – No. 2.25.
3. Needle for sewing on parts, preferably with a blunt end and a long needle for tightening.
4. Eyes on a safe fastening with a diameter of 10 mm.
5. Synthetic padding for filling, holofiber is possible.
6. Scissors.
7. Buttons (at your discretion).

Video on tightening the muzzle (clickable).
Bear in Overalls Crochet Design and assembly of the muzzle.
Sew on the ears between the 4th and 11th rows. Where the upper and lower points are parallel, and the third point is at an angle, stepping back about 3 Sc.
Sew on the ear loops and the jumpers along the head. Below are photo instructions.
Sew on the muzzle.
First, stretch the muzzle a little to the sides
→ in the DC zone. Next, mark the placement. DC on both sides, will be in the lower right corner of the eye and the lower left corner of the eye.
Since we made a tightening, the rows between the eyes have an arched shape, sew the muzzle along the row that is in the center of the eye. (with increases)
In the “muzzle” detail, the final row was row 30 SL-ST. Sew, for the loops
of the previous row. Photo below. Bear in Overalls Crochet
Next, embroider with black thread: eyelashes, eyebrows and nose. Where the lower part of the nose is 1Sc from MR, the upper 2 rows to the edge: – (3 Sc, İnc … and a row of SL-ST). Pay special attention to the fact that the nose is symmetrical. Embroider with white thread: the whites of the eyes.
Sew the head to the body. We made 9 decreases along the tummy in row 24, this row can serve as a guide for the symmetrical placement of the head. The 5th decrease serves as the center of the tummy, we mark the head so that the points (5th decrease) and (center of the nose) are parallel. We check the symmetry from different angles and sew the head to the body, adding (if necessary) filler to the neck. So that it does not dangle during use.
Sew on the paws.
Sew on the lower paws between rows 15 and 16. At a distance of approximately 26-27 Sc from edge to edge.
Sew on the upper paws, stepping back 1 row from the head. At a distance of approximately 6-7 Sc, above the lower ones.

Moving on to edging and straps. I’ll take hook #2.
The product is located facing you. Join the yarn to row 1 (it serves as the center), and knit SL-ST along the edge, without tightening the loops. From the corner of the back of the panties, approximately through 10Sl-st, knit 36 Ch (you may have a different amount of Ch, depending on the density of your knitting and the desired length of the strap) in the 7th sc from the hook knit sb to the end of the chain, thus made button loop. 10 Sl-st and again 36 Ch, knit, similar to the first strap. Next, close the SL-ST, along the edge of the entire product, with an inconspicuous loop closure. Thread hiding.
Sew buttons. On the front piece, backtracking about 8 loops from each of the sides, buttons for the strap. Let’s make sure they are symmetrical.
Along the back piece, on the facing side, sew the buttons under those loops we closed in the front piece.
