How to assemble Aska
• In rounds 36-37 embroider the eyes leaving 10 sts apart with black yarn.
• Split your black yarn to get a thinner thread and embroider the eyebrows in round 40 diagonally.
• Between rounds 34-35 embroider the nose with red yarn.
• In round 32 embroider the mouth with black yarn to create a little smile as you.
• Sew the arms between rounds 27-28 aligned with the legs.
• Put the collar around Aska’s neck and sew it with a few sts at the back and if you decided to make another collar put the 2nd upon the first and do the same.
• Sew the buttons onto the body centered with the 1st at least 7 rounds below the collar and the 2nd 3 rounds below the 1st.
• Sew the little star on the top of the hat.
• Sew the hat a bit sideways onto the head.
• Put blush below each eye to form the cheeks.
