How to Make A Dog With Yarn

Step 1:

Cut one sock below the heel and fill it up to more or less half, with rice, pebbles, or something heavy. Fill it with a little bit of stuffing, then close the sock using thread and needle. It should measure 5.12 inches.

Step 2:

Now, make the skeins of wool with the same measurement as the base by making 20 turns on a 5.12-inch cardboard. Tie it with a small length of wool, then cut on the opposite. Repeat the process to make a total of 9.

Step 3:

Using hot glue, start gluing 8 skeins one by one along the top part of the base.

Step 4:

Make a new skein 6.3 inches long. Make 70 turns. Depending on the thickness of your wool, they can be more or less turns. Tie it with a piece of wool, then cut on the other end.

Step 5:

Glue the large skein that you just made on top of the other skeins. This will be the ears.

Step 6:

Make the bun by taking half of the yarn from the front to the back. Put a hair tie and trim the ends of the bun. Cut the excess wool on the bottom.

Step 7:

Take the remaining skein that you made earlier and use it to make the snout. Glue it just below the bun.

Step 8:

Glue the black beads for the eyes then a piece of felt for the nose.

Step 9:

Cut her hair a little bit so that it will be prettier. Also, cut the ears and the hair on the muzzle a little.

Step 10:

Glue the bow on the hair tie. Be careful as the hot glue may burn the rubber.
