Softening:
We tighten the eye in the usual way. I did it at the bottom and in its inner part. We sink the eyes well.
Now we tighten the muzzle. We take a light beige thread (05) in two folds. We insert the needle in the back of the head, we bring it out in the lower corner of the inner part of the right eye. We insert the needle in the lower corner of the inner part of the left eye and we bring it out in the back of the head at the same point. We tighten it very tightly and make a couple of knots. We hide the ends.

Christmas reindeer- Design:
1. Embroider the whites with white thread eye. To prevent the thread from “rolling” down the eye, I always glue it with “Moment” glue.
2. Sew on the eyelids. For reliability, you can sew
in the middle or glue it in the same way.
3. With black Iris thread, embroider the eyelashes and eyebrows.
4. With the same Iris thread, embroider the nose.
5. Sew on the ears slightly at an angle from rows 9 to 11. 6. Sew on the horns from rows 3 to 5.
7. With light beige (05) yarn, embroider hearts on the forehead.

Sew the tail between the 11th and 12th row of the back from the bottom.
Christmas reindeer Pants:
Knit with burgundy yarn (51). Cast on 21 Ch. Knit in turning rows behind the back wall of the loop with connecting posts. Knit the required number of rows, I have 100 rows. But you try on the toy while knitting.
At the end of each row, make one lifting loop.
After knitting the fabric, we do not cut the thread. Take a white thread (62) and embroider hearts all over the fabric on the front side.
Let’s get back to sewing the pants. Fold the edges right sides together and tie them with slip stitches for the loop that is closer to you and the loop that is further away from you. Turn the piece inside out. This seam will be in the middle at the back. We don’t cut the thread. We’ll leave it like this for now.
Now we need to sew the pants between the legs. To do this, we take a needle with burgundy (51) yarn. Try it on the deer, mark with markers where to sew, and sew from the wrong side. Hide the ends.
Now we start knitting the Christmas tree, which will serve as a button. We knit with green (52) yarn.

2. 6 Sc

4. 12 Sc

6. 6 İnc (12)

8. 18 Sc
Fold in half and sew for the back half loops. Leave the thread for sewing. We make a binding of the Christmas tree along the remaining front half loops, BUT only in the front (3Ch + Sc). Hide the ends.
Sew the Christmas tree to the pants in the place where you want to place it.
Return to our pants. Now we need to knit a strap from air loops. Try on the pants and knit an air chain so that it wraps around the Christmas tree and returns to the back.
