A flat oval about 7.9 × 5.9 cm; 8 rounds. Worked around a chain, so it is an oval: sew it on with its long side (along the chain) running side to side. The round-start marker is in the middle of a long side (the piece's centre line), while R1 starts at a turn: after R1 shift the round start — sc 2 more (not counted in any round) and place the marker there. The increases fall on the turns.
With beige: ch 7.
Fasten off leaving a long tail (30–40 cm) for sewing. Do not stuff.

Size before assembly: about 1.8 cm at the widest, 2.7 cm long; 8 rounds.
Fasten off leaving a long tail (30–40 cm) for sewing. Stuff it lightly — a thin layer, just enough to hold the walls apart: the ear about 10.8 mm thick, with thick rounded edges. Then shape it into a spoon: push the front wall toward the back wall — a concave spoon about 1.5 mm deep in front, a rounded back; about 18 mm wide. Keep the opening a curve, hollow side forward, not a straight line.

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.

Satin stitch (on the face): in nose pink thread, a oval about 6 mm wide and 4.5 mm tall, horizontal stitches; centred between rounds 1 and 2, on the centre bottom line .
Satin stitch (on the face): in mouth thread, a oval about 9 mm wide and 10 mm tall, horizontal stitches; centred between rounds 3 and 4, on the centre bottom line .
Embroidery in dark grey thread (on the face) (2, symmetric: the toy's left side is described, the right is its mirror image), straight stitches through: (between rounds 1 and 2, 3 st from the centre top line, toward the toy's left ) → (in round 4, 8 st from the centre top line, toward the toy's left ).
