I have used a small amount

of white cotton yarn and
crocheted the diaper all
around with sc, fastened
two buttons as decorations
and made 20 chain long
straps to each 4 corners.
The straps were decorated
with little beads.

Now we have all body parts ready and can

begin with the assembly. Start with attaching
the head to the body.
The legs and the arms a going to move, so you
can use any method you prefer. I have used
just the yarns, which were left at the ends of
each piece. However, do not forget to close
the holes on the top of each leg and arm.

7.
Here is a little help with creating
joint parts using your thread.

My puppy looks like this

The next step is sewing on

the muzzle (do not stuff it!),
the nose and the ears. The
ears can be attached flatly or
folded in half.

Next I have made the eyes,

embroidered a little mouth
on the right side of the
muzzle.

8.
Now sew the tail, and the footprints on the feet.

Hair on the head

At the top of the head,
somwhere at the
center, slip stitch into
one of the stitches on
the head and make 5
chains. Make sure there
is a little piece of yarn
left sticking out.

Starting in the second

chain, make 4 sc and sl
st into another stitch on
the head.

Crochet 6 chains,
and turn back,
crocheting 5 sc.
Repeat this step one
more time again with
5 chains.

9.
At the end of the 3rd
row sl st into the
head and fasten off
your work.

Pull one of the yarn

ends next to the
other under your
work (inside the
head). This way you
can knot the two
ends together and
hide them.

The puppy is finished!
