With pink yarn, embroider two small horizontal lines or dots on the snout for cheek details, slightly above the mouth. Sew the ears onto the top of the head. Sew the head to the body. Sew the arms to the sides of the body, just below the neck. Sew the legs to the bottom of the body. Sew the tail to the back of the body. With black yarn, embroider tiger stripes on the head, body, and legs as seen in the image. Aim for irregular, short lines. Attach a keychain ring to the top of the head.
