Leave a 20 cm length of yarn and cut. Pull the yarn through the stitch.
It is recommended that the filling continues on an ongoing basis as the work progresses.
Mounting of the safety eyes:
The eyes are inserted, and the rear stops to the eyes are pushed from the inside.
The rear stops can and should be a little hard to plug in to ensure that they are sticking well.
Teddy
– Luxurious yarn in the nicest colors
Soft like a dream and a yarn many have been longing for, to be used for knitting and crocheting baby ware, teddies and blankets.
A “fluffy” yarn, that doesn’t require any special techniques or stitches to get a nice and chunky result.
Use Teddy for cuddle animals to give them a real “teddy” look or knit/crochet a blanket for babies/ toddlers.
Teddy has been awarded the AZO certificate and is thus a yarn that everyone can feel safe wearing.

Stuff the rest of the head with filler.
Close with a sl st and sew in the ends.
Shape the head and the eye hollows:
With Teddy, thread a needle with approx. 25 cm yarn.
Put the needle in from under the chin and out at the side of the eye.
Guide the thread around some stitches by the eye and then back out under the chin. Tighten the yarn to form the hollow around the eye, tighten the yarn through a few stitches under the chin.
Repeat for the other side of the same eye.
The hollow for the eye is now completed. Should you want the hollow deeper the process can be repeated and a stitch added towards the top of the eye.
Remember to always keep the yarn tight when the needle is pulled out under the chin, during the sewing to keep the tension and for the hollow to become permanent.
Repeat the process for the other eye.
See illustration.
Sew on eyebrows using the black yarn.

Hook Size & Tension
Crocheters crochet very differently: some crochet with a hook size 2,0 mm and obtain the same size of design and quality as a person who crochets with a hook size 4,0 mm. We owe this knowledge to the team of crocheters who join us.
The key to crochet a specific size is a lot about the crochet style/hands/skills, rather than the size of hook. Therefore, we will recommend a range of hook sizes.
