We will start with the head. The basic head shape stays the same no matter which animal you're crafting. However, you may need to transition between colors to incorporate spots or stripes.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n Start with the yarn color of your choice.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n Rnd 1:<\/strong> ch 2, work 6 sc into first ch - 6 sts. We will pause here and make the other components of the head: ears, muzzle, horns (if applicable), etc.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n Ears (make 2):<\/strong> ch 4, insert hook into previous st and sc into each stitch. Tie or sew to the head. Muzzle:<\/strong> for this part, we\u2019ll use the beige cotton yarn. We\u2019re going to start with a chain, and work around it to create an oval. Horns (make 2):<\/strong> ch 2, work 6 sc into first ch. sc in each st around for 3 rounds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Now, we\u2019ll attach all parts to the face and embroider the eyes<\/em>. Once everything is attached to the head, we will add the jiggle bell and fill until the head is firm.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n Rnd 14:<\/strong> [sc2tog, sc in next st] 6 times - 12 sts. Fill the rest of the toy with polyester fiberfill, cotton or similar.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n Rnd 27:<\/strong> sc2tog in next 6 sts - 6 st. With a piece of ribbon, make a bow and wrap it around the neck. I\u2019d recommend sewing it to the rattle.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n Now your toy is ready!<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n ___________________________<\/p>\n\n\n\n Disclaimer:<\/strong> This post might contain affiliate links.

ch 6, skip one stitch and insert hook into next st. sc in next 4 st. Add 3 sc in last stitch. Add a stitch marker of a piece of yarn in the second stitch of the last 3 sc. Turn your work and sc back into every stitch on the other side of the chain. Mark second-last stitch with a stitch marker or a piece of yarn. This is the end of the first round.
sc in every stitch until you get to the stitch before your first marker. 2 sc on that stitch, 3 sc in the stitch with your first marker, and 2sc on the next stitch. Repeat the process on the other side.
Repeat the process until you get the desired oval size, then st in each st around for 2-3 rounds.
