Assembling
Whenever I start assembling amigurumi’s, I prefer to use sewing pins first. This way I can position and reposition all parts until I am happy with how it looks. I recommend you do so as well.
Start sewing the stem to the crown, and then the crown to the top of the strawberry.
Then position the ears and sew them on.
Last with the extra white yarn you can stitch on the ‘seeds’. With black felt or yarn create a small nose.
That was it already for today’s pattern! I hope you liked this BerryCat! I can imagine them hanging around everywhere!
