 Tips
1
It’s less important that your gauge matches the exact gauge of
the pattern and more important that your stitching isn’t so
loose that you end up with lots of space between stitches.

2
The first or last round of crochet for any body part — legs,
arms, head — is very important. If you have a hole in one of
those, your stuffing is going to show through. Give those ends
a quick check when you’re beginning and ending each piece to
make sure everything is closed up properly.

3
Whether you’re counting rows or stitches, it’s easy to lose
count in crochet. You can use a stitch marker to mark the
beginning of a round, mark the beginning of a group of
increases or decreases — whatever you need to make sure you
stay on track.

4
Stuff your toy evenly, and over stuff it just a bit.
