Toy stuffing – washable polyester (approx. 30 g)
Two black round loop backed eyes (diameter is approx. 6 mm)
White embroidery thread for the eyes

{Equipment}
One pair of 2.75 mm straight knitting needles (UK12/US2)
2.75 mm circular knitting needles for the dress (UK12/US2) – it is more convenient to use it instead of straight knitting needles

Crochet hook 1.6-2.0 mm (UK1/US1) for the buttonholes and crochet the edges of the ears
