Assembling:
Start by sewing the head on the body.
Next is the hat. Put a bit of filling in the hat, so it will stay up. You can either sew it on straight or a bit crooked.
Next is the scarf – you can sew only the ends together, where they lie on top of each other, so you can adjust it later.
In the end, you need to sew the nose and the buttons on.
