Now, from hear on out, it gets very tricky and confusing. So read the pattern carefully!

Bind off leaving a few inches of yarn to sew holes together.
Stuff.

DOUBLE CHECK AND COUNT HOW MANY STITCHES ARE IN EACH POINT.
There MUST be 16.



Crown of the head.
Sc in next 8 sc.
*sc in first 8 sc of point* 4 more times. You want to leave the long end close to where the points meet. There WILL be holes there, and you need to sew them up.
(40)
2: *sc in next 6 sc, dec* around. (35)
3: *sc in next 5 sc, dec* around. (30)
4: *sc in next 4 sc, dec* around. (25)
5: *sc in next 3 sc, dec* around. (20)
6: *sc in next 2 sc, dec* around. (15)
7: *sc in next sc, dec* around. (10)
8: dec around. (5)

Bind off leaving a long tail. Do not stuff yet. Do not sew any holes together yet.

Now, you will be working in the stitches left over from the points.

Face/neck area.
1: Sc in the remaining 8 sc of each point. (40)
2: *inc in next sc, sc in next 9 sc* around. (44)
3: sc in next 6 sc, *inc, sc in next 10 sc* 3 times, Inc, sc in last 4 sc. (48)
4-5: sc around. (48)

Bind off leaving a very long tail to sew head to body.
Stuff the head lightly.
Begin sewing the head to the body so one of the points is centered over the “Cluster B”. (I used a whipstitch.)
When you only have about 10 stitches left to sew together, stuff the rest of the head and body. Make the shape egg-like.
Finish sewing the head on.
Remember how we have the 6 different holes? We’re going to use them to finalize the shape. Use a stuffing tool, pencil, or chopstick to finish stuffing the body.
Using the tails left over, sew all of the holes closed.

Assembly.
Use a small amount of black yarn, and embroider a line to separate the 2 toes on each foot.
If you used felt, cut out felt shapes using the templates provided.
Cut 2 of A in red, 2 of A in blue, 1 B in blue, 1 C in blue, 1 D in red, 1 E in red, 2 Ovals in black, 2 smaller ovals in white, and 2 “D” shapes in peach.
If you want to embroider the plush like I did do so now.
Do so in this order.
Eyes (pupils, lines, and catchlights.)
Red triangles and square-ish shapes.
Blue triangles
Soles of feet

Sew the feet to the underside of the shell to the plush will stand on its own.
Sew the arms on opposite sides of the shell.

Weave in all ends.
