Instructions:

Step 1:

Wrap the yarn around the small oval object. About halfway through, make a handle. From the other side, continue wrapping it all the way to the middle. This will be the body of the dog.

Step 2:

Wrap the yarn around your two fingers several times, remove and tie it in the middle with a small piece of yarn. Cut the loops and trim to make a pom pom. Repeat it three more times. Make sure they have the same amount of loops.

Step 3:

Glue these four pom poms on the body for the feet. Make sure to attach them to the opposite side of the handle. Trim them to make them more round.

Step 4:

Cut a small yarn and place it along your index finger. Wrap the yarn onto your index finger ten times, then tie it in the middle with the small yarn. Remove it from your finger. With another small yarn, wrap it tightly around just below the knot. Trim the other ends. Glue it on the back of the body for the tail.

Step 5:

Wrap the yarn around your four fingers six times, then tie it in the middle with a small piece of yarn. Glue it to the top front of the body.

Step 6:

Wrap the yarn around your four fingers again six times, then tie it in the middle. Cut the loops, then comb one side to split the strands. On the uncombed part, tie using the pink yarn. Trim the ends, then glue them on the front of the body.

Step 7:

Make a knot using the red yarn and cut the ends. Glue it on the front for the tongue of the dog.

Step 8:

Glue the beads for the eyes and the nose.
