Cut yarn,
leaving a ‘tail’ to use for joining
Thread the tail
into a sewing needle, pull it through all remaining stitches and gather
together
Fasten off
securely.
Join side seam
most of the way – leaving an opening. Fill with polyester stuffing. Sew the
rest of the seam closed. Gather the cast on stitches together, and fasten off
securely.
Darn away ends.
I am happy for you to use my patterns for your own use or for charity donations.
