ARMS (make 2)
★ Make sure to make the arms before the body, since we’ll need to crochet
them into the body directly
★ Starting in light pink
★ R1: 4 SC in a MR (4)
★ R2: [INC]x4 (8)
★ R3: [1 SC, INC]x4 (12)
○ On the last ST of R3, color change to white
★ R4: [1 SC, DEC]x4 (8)
★ Start stuffing arms as you go
★ R5-R8 (4 rounds): 8 SC (8)
★ Fold arm in half and crochet 4 SC across the top to close arm, fasten off, cut
the tail, and set aside for later

HEAD
★ In white
★ R1: 6 SC in a MR (6)
★ R2: [INC]x6 (12)
★ R3:[1 SC, INC]x6 (18)

★ Stop here to place the 20mm eyes, I like to place them between R8 and R9,
around 9 stitches apart.
★ R12: [5 SC, DEC]x6 (36)
★ R13: [4 SC, DEC]x6 (30)
★ R14: [3 SC, DEC]x6 (24)
★ R15: [2 SC, DEC]x6 (18)
★ Now fasten off, leaving a tail for sewing the head onto the body. Stuff the head
firmly.

HORNS (make 2)
★ In beige
★ R1: 6 SC in a MR (6)
★ R2-R3 (2 rounds): 6 SC (6)
★ Do not stuff. Now fasten off, leaving a tail for sewing the horns to the head
★ I like to sew the horns right next to each ear, between R3 and R4.

EARS (make 2)
★ In pink or white
★ R1: 6 SC in a MR (6)
★ R2: [INC]x6 (12)
★ R3:[1 SC, INC]x6 (18)
★ Slip stitch and fasten off. Then, fold the ear in half and sew the end of the ear
closed so it’s “pinched” on one side. The tail from the magic ring can be
weaved into the pinched side of the ear, refer to picture below.
★ Grab the head and sew each ear onto the head -- I like to sew the ears
between R5 and R6 and align them with the back of each eye, refer to pictures
above for placement.

★ For Leg 1, stop here, fasten off, and cut the tail

(you won’t be doing R7 for Leg 2)
★ R8: 12 SC (12)

pictures below (28)

Sunflowers -- start in brown

★ R1: 6 SC in MR (6)
★ R2: [INC]x6 (12)

stitch]x12
○ Note you’ll have 12 petals at the end
★ Fasten off, weave in the end, and then cut off access
★ Repeat the above 3 times to make 3 sunflowers

Assembly
★ Take your flower stem and align on the forehead of your cow. Take the two
yarn tails, weave the tails under the cow’s head, and then secure it with a
knot. Cut the tails short and poke in the knot with your needle to hide.
★ Once you have all 3 flowers complete, use the leftover yarn tail from each
flower to sew the flowers onto the stem -- positioning as desired. I like to
evenly spread the flowers across the stem. Secure your tails with a knot and
cut off the excess.
★ Next, take your 4 leaves and sew them onto the stem -- positioning as desired.
I like to sew the leaves in between each flower.
★ Use hot glue to secure the flower leaves and flowers if preferred!
