R3: (sc, inc) x6 (18 sts)
R4: (sc2, inc) x6 (24 sts)

Begin stuffing. Put the safety eyes in at round 11 (right under the current round) about 1.25 inches apart (if you are using worsted weight yarn for the muzzle).
R13: (sc, dec) x6 (12 sts)
Finish stuffing.
R14: (dec) x6 (6 sts)
Cut yarn, leaving a short tail. Using a needle, thread the yarn through all 6 stitches in the last round, and pull it tight so the opening closes like a drawstring bag. Finish off.

Invisible finish off, leaving a long tail for sewing. Embroider the brown nose onto the muzzle, between rounds 2-4. To embroider a triangle shape, embroider the left side vertically, then the right side, and then fill in the middle portion. If the top is uneven, then embroider once at the end on top. Do not mix many vertical and horizontal stitches. Stuff lightly when attaching to head.
