✨ Assembly & Finishing Touches

The Eye: Cut a circle from green felt. Cut a hole in the middle and insert the 12mm safety eye.
Face: Attach the eye assembly to the head. Use black thread to embroider a wide, cheerful mouth. Cut two tiny triangles of white felt for teeth and attach them under the mouth.
The Details: Attach the horns to the top of the head, spaced about 6-7 stitches apart. Wrap the eye brim around the eye, ensuring the slip-stitch part covers the lower eye and the single-crochet part covers the upper eye.
Limbs: Sew the arms to the sides of the head at Round 22. Finally, attach the legs to the bottom of the body so Mike can stand (or sit!) tall.

You’ve finished your very own little Mike! He’s ready to generate some “laughs” and join your amigurumi collection.
