Attach Ooooo’s eyes between rnds 10 and 11 with a distance of 9 sts being visible between the eyes (→ photos 05+06).
TIP: Stuffing the head evenly can be challenging due to the long shanks of the eyes inside. As a result, the eyes often end up looking crooked. To prevent this, seal the eyes (→ Tutorial B).
13.-15. (3 rnds) sc 48
Adjust beginning of following rnds: sc 2, replace stitch marker into the very next stitch (this marks the new beginning of the upcoming rnds):
16. [sc 8, sc3tog, sc 7, sc3tog, sc 3] 2x (40)
17. [sc 7, sc3tog, sc 5, sc3tog, sc 2] 2x (32)
18. [sc 6, sc3tog, sc 3, sc3tog, sc 1] 2x (24)
19. [sc 5, sc3tog, sc 1, sc3tog] 2x (16)
Cut the yarn with a long tail and pull the end through the last stitch completely (→ photo 07).
Stuff Ooooo’s body firmly.
Thread a needle with the yarn end and sew together the opposite sts at the open end of Ooooo’s body in order to close the open end of the body (→ photos 08+09). Weave in the end.
