Hair (Rusty Orange Yarn)

Assembly
Attach Head to Body: Using the tail from the body, sew the head securely to the top opening of the body.
Attach Arms: Position the arms on either side of the body, just below the neck seam, and sew them firmly in place.
Attach Legs: Sew the legs to the bottom of the body, spaced evenly apart, ensuring the doll can stand or sit as desired.
Embroider Face: Using black embroidery floss, embroider small oval eyes around R10-11 of the head, about 3-4 stitches apart. Create eyebrows just above the eyes. For the nose, use beige yarn to make a small horizontal stitch between the eyes. For the mouth, use black embroidery floss to create a wide, friendly smile, perhaps with a small stitch in the middle for definition, as shown in the image.
