After covering the wool hats , you must wind the wool thread over two fingers to create a skein of thread which will then be knotted in the center.
After creating a woolen knot, the sides should be cut and shortened with scissors. So after having obtained around 5 small balls of cotton, you will need to stick them on the hats previously covered with wool.
At this point, simply glue 4 balls on the bottom to make the legs and one on top to make the tail. Finally, to make the dog’s head, you must create a small skein of wool, tie it with colored wool thread at its ends.
