Making Up Use buttons for eyes and sew on as illustrated. Starting at the nose oversew the row ends. Sew an ear to either side of the head, if you fold the bottom edge over slightly it makes a good shape. Cut 5 lengths of brown yarn approx 4" long. Lay these side by side and tie a knot in the middle.  Fasten another length of brown yarn to the end leaving an end and sew the hair in place through the knot between the ears.  Cut the hair to style! Now, anyone for Green Soup?!
