Before finishing the last stitch, change the color to cream.
3– Go up a ch, and on top of each dc make (1 sc, 1 ch), and on top of each sl st make 1 sl st.
Fasten off, cut the yarn and hide them inside the work (both the yellow and the lilac, when you changed the color).
Position with pins on top of Finn’s head, right in the center, until the beginning of the neck.
With the long yarn that we left at the beginning, sew.
