Step 1
body
Cast on 6 stitches onto 2 DPNs and join to work in a round.
RND 1: [Kfb] 6 times (12 sts).
RNDS 2–5: Knit (4 rnds).
RND 6: K1, [k2tog] twice, k2, [k2tog] twice, k1 (8 sts).
Insert a tiny amount of stuffing into the piece.
RND 7: K1, [kfb] twice, k2, [kfb] twice, k1 (12 sts).
RNDS 8–10: Knit (3 rnds).
RND 11: K1, [k2tog] twice, k2, [k2tog] twice, k1 (8 sts).
Insert a tiny amount of stuffing into the top of the piece. -
Step 2
ears
Working with only the 4 stitches on the needle with the working yarn attached, knit 3 rows as an I-cord.
Break the yarn, leaving a tail of 12" (30.5cm).
Thread the tail onto a tapestry needle, and draw the yarn tightly through the stitches of the I-cord you just worked. Next, insert the needle back through the I-cord and reattach the yarn to the leftmost stitch on the remaining DPN. Knit 3 rows as an I-cord, then draw the tail tightly through the stitches. -
Step 3
finishing
With black, embroider eyes with one small horizontal stitch for each, placed 2 stitches below the ears and spaced 2 stitches apart.
Weave in the loose ends.
