Finish off and stuff the body. For the mouth, make 10 SIST (Pumpkin color) on the FLO in Rnd 22 with the top turned to you.
Hair
Cut 5 strands of Pumpkin colour, about 10/11 cm (4in) long each. Please place them on the top of the body; make a knot when you reach the middle of each strand. You can leave them like that or unravel them for a more crazy look.
Assembly
Place and sew the eye between Rnd 12 and 19. Stuff firmly. Cut a long strand of yarn in Pumpkin color and embroider some spots on the body just above the eye. Play with his hair as you want. Give him a nice look. And that's it! Now you have your little Monster!
