Spiral Body (Using White Yarn) The spiral effect is created naturally through multiple increases along the foundation chain. Foundation Chain: Ch 80 to 100 (depending on your desired length). Row 1: Starting from the 2nd ch from the hook, work 3 hdc into each chain across. The strip will naturally start to curl. Row 2: Turn, work (1 hdc, 1 hdc-inc) in every stitch across. Row 3 (Optional for extra width): Turn, sc in all stitches across. Fasten off. 5. Scarf (Using Colored Yarn) Ch 61. Starting from the 2nd ch from hook, dc in each chain across. Fasten off and add fringe/tassels if desired.
Assembly & Finishing Details Facial Details: Embroider a wide smile under the eyes using black embroidery thread. Add blush to the cheeks if desired. Attaching the Hat: Stuff the hat top lightly and sew it securely to the top of the head. Connecting Head & Spiral Body: Sew the top end of the spiral body firmly to the base of the head. Alternative: Thread a thick cord through the core of the spiral, pass it up through the head, and create a hanging loop with jute twine at the top. Decorations: Wrap and tie the scarf around the neck (between the head and spiral). Glue or sew snowflake appliques/charms along the spiral. Attach hanging beads and pom-poms to the bottom tip of the spiral for added weight and style.
