Turn right sides together and sew seam leaving an opening approx. 2\/3 cm, turn right side out. Stuff and at this point you can insert a circle of card if required, it just helps it sit better. The circle of card used was about 4\/5cm. Finish seaming the opening and close the bottom by stitching around the edge of the circular hole and pulling tightly.<\/p>\n

With the wrong sides together, sew side seam leaving top open. Now flatten this so the seam is down the centre and sew across the top. As you look at your hat from inside your seams are a T shape, so the hat has a flat top. Turn hat the right side out.<\/p>\n

Cut the yarn leaving a long tail, thread this through the remaining 3 stitches to fasten off.\u00a0 Now weave your threaded needle around the edge of the circle, stuff lightly and pull up to form a ball shape.<\/p>\n

Attach the nose to the body. Pull the hat onto the body to help position where to place the nose.<\/p>\n

The eyes are embroidered on last, using short lengths of yarn.<\/p>\n
