The arms are worked separately and joined to the body as you knit. The ears are knitted separately and sewn on afterwards. The muzzle is embroidered with dark brown yarn, following the stitches. The eyes and nose are embroidered with black yarn.
The flower hat consists of individually knitted petals joined together to form a circle. Each petal is worked flat and seamed along the side edge.
