Slip scissors between loop ends of yarn bundle and cut yarn. Holding the two long strands of yarn, stand bundle on end (so the direction of the yarn tied around the middle is going side to side and not up and down) and let yarn strands fall over the center.

10 Troll Assembly Stuff hands/arms and pin to either side of body just below neck opening with thumbs pointing upwards, sew each on along the top stitches of the last round of arms. Stuff feet/legs and pin to body on either side of bottom area, spaced apart so that outer area of legs line up with the sides of the body and toes pointing outward, sew each on. Stuff body, rounding out belly, but not so tightly that the stitches stretch out and the stuffing shows through, stuff neck area so it is firm enough to keep head up. Pin on head, centering face with body, sew on, keeping enough neck width around base of head (and adding small amounts of stuffing as you go, if necessary) so head doesn't flop over. Tie on bib and give baby her mopsie. This is an original Craft Ingénue pattern, offered free and with no warranties or guarantees.
