Chain 12, with the two strands of yarn, or however long you want your tail to be. Do the same for the arms, except when you're done, finish off and tie a square knot with the two strands of yarn and cut the extra yarn off. then tuck the square knot into a hole in the crocheting so that it stays flat. I hope I made sense. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/429593665473939235-5233352868033525775?l=mescrochet.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Maryhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16110166223155345536noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-429593665473939235.post-91068820182774767222009-06-30T21:53:00.000-07:002010-02-07T11:22:43.836-08:00<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_e-UCaAXaSUA/SkrsNA0KrpI/AAAAAAAAAAU/gelDI0FhnJg/s1600-h/Tohru.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_e-UCaAXaSUA/SkrsNA0KrpI/AAAAAAAAAAU/gelDI0FhnJg/s320/Tohru.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5353350815384514194" /></a> <br /><!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN"> <br /> <br /> <br /><head><p><big>Onigiri (Riceball) Tohru</big></p> <br /><br><br><br><p>I'm SOO sorry if the pattern isn't clear.

Always keep crocheting the same edge of the band to one triangle, and the other edge to the other triangle. Do 2 sides of the other triangle, but leave one side un-crocheted. Turn right-side-out. Sew on the face and mouth at this time. When the face and mouth are done, start stuffing and sew the remaining side together. Sorry if the instructions were unclear.</p> <br /> <br />Here's a picture of the band and the side being crocheted together, I hope it helps: <br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_e-UCaAXaSUA/S28Son1uCbI/AAAAAAAAACI/cb7RU8iCldQ/s1600-h/UnfinishedTohru.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_e-UCaAXaSUA/S28Son1uCbI/AAAAAAAAACI/cb7RU8iCldQ/s320/UnfinishedTohru.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5435583764357843378" /></a> <br /> <br /></body> <br /></html> <br /><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/429593665473939235-9106882018277476722?l=mescrochet.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Maryhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16110166223155345536noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-429593665473939235.post-53132708289329647062009-06-30T21:40:00.000-07:002009-06-30T21:48:20.856-07:00 <br /> <br /> <br />Sorry about the messy blog.
