Level of Difficulty

Tutor's Suggestions
Follow these suggestions from the instructor for a better result:
-
Loose Tension: When starting the initial chain for the legs and working in the round, maintain a slightly loose tension. This prevents difficulty when working the following rounds.
-
Leg Joining: When joining the two legs to form the body, ensure you move your yarn to the side of the second leg before chaining and joining to keep the color change/join point on the back of the figure.
-
Color Transitions: Carry the yarn not in use (the yellow and red yarns) behind the work on the jacket piece to avoid having to reattach it multiple times.
-
Hair Movement: Do not sew down the shorter fringe strands of the hair cap at the ends. Only sew the base of the cap and the longer strands to allow the fringe to remain loose and movable, giving the hair a more dynamic look.
-
Finishing Details: You can easily add more embroidered details to the face (like a mouth) if you wish, as the existing eyeliner is very simple.

Tip
When crocheting the hair cap strands, be sure to use a slightly looser tension than you used for the body. Maintaining a looser stitch prevents the strands from curling or becoming too stiff, ensuring they fall smoothly over the head and achieve a better visual texture.
