ASSEMBLY & FINISHING TOUCHES

EARS – Sew ears around R2-4 about 1 stitch apart. Keep in mind the eyes are closer to the bottom of the head.

ARMS – Sew arms between R8 and R9 about 7 stitches apart
LEGS – Sew legs between R5 and R6 about 5 stitches apart

NOSE – I thread the nose with a pink yarn about the width of 1-2 stitches centered right between both eyes.

FACE SHAPING – I chose to indent my bun’s eyes, you don’t have to do this! I just love the shape it gives Chub’s cute little face.
TAIL – Sew the tail between R5 and R6 directly centered on the bum Chubs.
