Snout (Use Darker Pink Yarn)
- Round 1: ch 4. Starting in the 2nd chain from the hook, place 1 sc in the next 2 chains. In the last chain, place 3 sc. Rotate your work to crochet down the opposite side of the foundation chain. Place 1 sc in the next chain, and 1 inc in the final chain. sl st to the first st to join. [8]
Finish: Fasten off, leaving a long tail for sewing.
Assembly Instructions
- Attach the Eyes: Find Rounds 9 and 10 (right above where the cheek increases start). Place the safety eyes evenly spaced between these two rounds.
- Attach the Snout: Center the snout between the eyes. Use your tapestry needle to sew it onto the face, or use hot glue to secure it.
- Attach the Ears: Take your flattened ears and position them on the top-left and top-right sides of the pig’s head. Sew them down firmly.
- Attach the Petals: Take your 10 flower petals and arrange them evenly around the perimeter of the head. Pin them in place first to ensure they fit nicely in a circle, then sew or hot glue the base of each petal to the head.
- Finishing Touches: Take your blush and a small makeup brush and dab a little bit of color onto the cheeks (right on the bulging areas you created in Rounds 9 and 10) to give your pig flower a cute, rosy glow.
