MATERIALS AND TOOLS

• Yarn
  I used a bit more than one skein of beige “Khlopok Travka” by Kamteks (65% cotton, 35% polyamide) that has approximately 220 m in a 100 g skein).
• Strong smooth thread matching the color of your main yarn to sew the pieces together if your main yarn is fluffy and you can’t use it to assemble the toy.
• Strong smooth black thread to needle sculpt the paws.
• Matching crochet hook. I used 2.0 mm crochet hook.
• Stuffing
• Tapestry needle
  Two black beads or half beads for the pupils of the eyes (I used 4 mm in diameter) or read-made eyes.
• Black or brown polymer clay to make the nose (instructions are given). You can use a ready-made nose as well (approximately 35 mm wide for the toy 35 cm/13.8 inches long), or crochet it (instructions are given – you will need small amount of black yarn in this case).
• Aluminum foil (if you plan to make the nose using polymer clay).
• White polymer clay to make the whites of the eyes.
• Varnish (if you are going to make the nose using polymer clay).
• Brush to brush up the toy (you can use Velcro instead).
• Scissors
• Any material to tint the toy: oil pastels, pencils, oil paints, etc.
• Transparent glue
• PVC covered copper wire for the wire frame – I used approximately 110 cm/43.3 inches of wire 2 mm in diameter and 60 cm/23.6 inches of wire 0.5 mm in diameter (for the ears).
• Fabric tape
