Finishing
(Follow the photos to guide you)
Block your work if needed before you start since you will use glue.
With the long tail from the red spot thread it into the tapestry needle,
Line up the red spot to the top of face.
Start to sew matching the single crochet along the top, pin the bottom of the red spot down and keep sewing around the entire piece.
Place the mouth at the bottom of the red spot, and sew in place.
With white felt cut some small circles and arrange them around the top of the red spot and glue them down with felt glue.
With green felt cut two circles for the eyes, and glue them on the side of the face with felt glue. With black felt cut two smaller circles for the inside of the eyes, and glue them in the middle of the green circles with felt glue.
With black felt cut half a circle big enough for the nose and glue it down with felt glue
With black yarn thread it into the tapestry needle and embroider the mouth and the eyes lashes.
With white yarn cut an oval shape small enough to fit in the middle of the ears and glue it down with felt glue. Line up the ears on the side of the face starting on row 16 and sew them in place, pinch them in the middle to give it some form.
Line up the antlers on top of the face about one inch in between them and sew them down.aling the back of the face with the front and whipstitch around begining just above the ear and ending on the other side.attach the strap on either side and you are done.
