Step 6 of 10:

Pip’s Nose

You'll make the Nose using blue yarn. It's a tiny piece, just one round, but it gives Pip her most important feature!

Round

Start by making a magic ring (MR) with the blue yarn. Then crochet 4 single crochet (sc) into the center of the ring. Gently pull the yarn tail to draw the ring tightly closed.

Total stitches: 4
