Now sew 2 of the ears together so you get nice puffy ears, don’t stuff them tho.

Tail:

Chain 9, insert in second chain from hook and make 8 slst. Fasten off and leave long tail for sewing.

Bow:
In red.

Fasten off and sew both ends together so you get a circle. Keep the sewd together part in the middle wher the middle band of the bow comes and flatten it.

Middle part of the bow:
In red.

2: Ch1, 8SC, turn. [8]
3: Ch1, 8SC. [8]
Fasten off and sew both ends together and place it in the middle of the main part of the bow. The easiest way to do this to sew it around it. Leave long tail to sew it onto her head.

♥ Assembling

To make sure you sew all parts in the right place, you can use some sewing pins to position them. When you are happy with the position, you can sew them on.
Sew the legs on to the bottom of the body, the front legs are pointing to the front. The back legs are pointing to the side.
As for the ears, sew them about 2 or 3 layers from the face. Use my photo’s as a guideline to place them on the right spot.
In the middle of the ears, sew the bow. and fluff it up a bit.
The tail you’ll sew on her butt.
Sew the Dots on her skirt.
For the eyes and nose you can either choose to use felt or you can embroider them on. I chose to embroider them on, cause yeah why choose the easy way haha. But which way you choose, Minnie will look cute.

I hope my pattern is clear.  If you have any questions, leave a comment below and I’ll get back to you.
