Hot Cocoa Mug Ornament

The whole face is embroidered. Order: the eyes (black satin), then the white glints over them, then the nose and mouth, blush last. Mark the centres with pins first and compare with the picture. Bring thread ends out where a sewn-on piece will cover them, or bury them in the stuffing.

• Embroidered eyes (on the mug) (2, symmetric: the toy's left side is described, the right is its mirror image): in black thread, a oval about 5.4 mm wide and 6.6 mm tall, horizontal stitches; centred between rounds 12 and 13, 3.5 st from the centre front line, toward the toy's left.
• Eye glint (on the mug) (2, symmetric: the toy's left side is described, the right is its mirror image): in snow white thread over the embroidered eye, a oval about 1.8 mm wide and 1.8 mm tall, horizontal stitches; centred between rounds 12 and 13, 3.5 st from the centre front line, toward the toy's left, then moved 1 mm to the right and 1.6 mm up (looking at the toy's face).
• Embroidery in black thread (on the mug), straight stitches through: (between rounds 10 and 11, 1 st from the centre front line, toward the toy's left ) → (in round 10, 0.5 st from the centre front line, toward the toy's left ) → (between rounds 9 and 10, on the centre front line ) → (in round 10, 0.5 st from the centre front line, toward the toy's right ) → (between rounds 10 and 11, 1 st from the centre front line, toward the toy's right ).
