Fasten off leaving a long tail (30–40 cm) for sewing. Insert the safety nose/eyes now, while the piece is open (positions: see “Face”). Stuff firmly just before sewing it on; a little less near the edge, then add a pinch when the seam is nearly done. Bend ≈ 48° around round 15. After stuffing, bend the piece so the inner side of the bend faces forward on the finished toy (on the piece: in round 15, 1 st from the centre front line, toward the toy's left ). On the inner side draw rounds 14 and 17 together (3 rounds go into the fold): with the needle and matching yarn make 3–4 stitches through the loops of both rounds over about 4 st, pull to the angle and hide the end inside.

Size before assembly: an oval about 2.8 × 1.6 cm at the widest, 1.6 cm long; 5 rounds. The piece is oval: the rounds go around the chain, and on the finished toy the chain (the long side of the oval) runs side to side; the starting chain is at the front of the piece (on the finished toy). 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 orange: ch 5.
Fasten off leaving a long tail (30–40 cm) for sewing. Do not stuff. Press the piece flat (the opening becomes a straight line), front and back walls together.
