Size before assembly: about 0.7 cm at the widest, 2.6 cm long; 10 rounds.
Fasten off leaving a long tail (30–40 cm) for sewing. Stuff lightly just before sewing it on; a little less near the edge, then add a pinch when the seam is nearly done. Bend ≈ 200° around round 5. The piece rolls up into a spiral (about 0.6 turns) from round 5 to its tip: after stuffing, roll it up starting from the tip (round 1) toward the side that faces up on the finished toy; the turns lie close, each wider than the last. From the tip to round 5 tack neighbouring turns together with 2–3 stitches of matching yarn every 3–4 rounds and hide the yarn inside.

A flat oval about 1.7 × 1.1 cm; 2 rounds. Worked around a chain, so it is an oval: sew it on with its long side (along the chain) running front to back. 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 1 more (not counted in any round) and place the marker there. The increases fall on the turns.
With bow pink: ch 4.

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.

Embroidered eyes (on the head body) (2, symmetric: the toy's left side is described, the right is its mirror image): in black thread, a oval about 5 mm wide and 6 mm tall, horizontal stitches; centred between rounds 11 and 12, 3 st from the centre front line, toward the toy's left .
Eye glint (on the head body) (2, symmetric: the toy's left side is described, the right is its mirror image): in snow white thread over the embroidered eye, a oval about 1.8 mm wide and 1.8 mm tall, horizontal stitches; centred between rounds 11 and 12, 3 st from the centre front line, toward the toy's left , then moved 1 mm to the right and 1.4 mm up (looking at the toy's face).
Embroidery in dark plum thread (on the head body), straight stitches through: (between rounds 13 and 14, 0.5 st from the centre front line, toward the toy's right ) → (in round 14, on the centre front line ) → (in round 14, on the centre front line ) → (in round 14, on the centre front line ) → (between rounds 13 and 14, 0.5 st from the centre front line, toward the toy's left ).
