Making up

Sew in all loose ends.  taking 2 ears with wrong sides facing each other, crochet or sew ears together, leave enough yarn at the end to sew onto the hat.   Repeat with other 2 ears.

NOTE : I like to sew ears into position whilst on the doll as sometimes depending on dolls shape of head the centre is not always where you think.
