Mouth

For the mouth, I used this pattern's eyes, CB yarn, J hook and a yarn needle. Then attached it just above the ribbing with CB yarn and a yarn needle. Once finished, cut yarn and weave ends.

Eyes

With two 1/2″ black buttons, black tapestry thread and a tapestry needle – I attach the buttons a few rounds above the mouth. Then cut yarn and tied both ends together.
