Pattern (Part Six): Assembling Rolland
Assembly:
1. Sew Head Cap to Head in FLO, so that you leave the back loops as a ridge around the Head Cap.
2. Stuff Body.
3. Sew Head to Body, making sure to angle the eyes/face slightly upward. Also make sure that the eyes are aligned straight forward with the body so that he isn’t looking askew.
4. Sew Shell to Body using a running stitch just about 1/8″ in from the outer edge, leaving the edge unsewn.
5. Sew Feet to bottom of Body in two rows of 7 each.
6. Sew Antennae to top of Rolland’s Head Cap on either side of the Head Cap’s widow’s peak.
Rolland is now complete! What a cheeky little guy! I hope you’ve enjoyed this crochet along! Don’t forget to post pics and #RollandCAL2021.
Have a wonderful day!
