Cut the yarn and leave a lot of excess as these will be the straps of the flip-flops.
To attach the flip-flops to the front paw: place the flip-flops under the paw and pass the excess yarn between the toes, going behind the paw and returning to the same place where it came from. These are the straps of the flip-flops. To prevent the flip-flops from falling off the back of the paws, you can glue the sole of the paw to the flip-flops or make a stitch with yarn.
SEWING THE PAWS AND TAIL
First, sew the front paws, positioning them between rows 7 and 10, side by side with 1 stitch between them.
Sew the back paws on the sides, supporting them on the table you are using and on the body, so that the puppy can sit on its own without needing support. There is no specific row, you choose where it is.
Do the same with the tail, positioning it supported on the table and on the body, you choose whether it is to the side or up.
SEWING THE EARS
Sew the ears in a half-moon shape, like the orange pins in the photo, between rows 19 and 22, with 8 stitches between them.
The highest part of the ear is 3 sc above the eyes. And the lowest part of the ear is on the lowest row of the eyes.
SEWING THE HEAD TO THE BODY
Sew the head to the body, positioning it facing the side you want, there is no specific row. Use your creativity!
SEWING THE CAP
Place the cap on top of the head between the ears.
