Finish stuffing the Eggster Mushroom.
Fasten off, leaving a long tail (20cm). Using a tapestry needle, weave the yarn tail through the front loop of each remaining stitch and pull it tight
to close. Pass the tail through the bottom hole. Secure and hide
the yarn.

Embroider the eyebrows and mouth using black embroidery floss (I only used 4 strands) and the cheeks using pink color. Use the photos as a guide.
Using a white-fingering weight yarn embroiderer, some French knots or small lines should be placed on the red top part.
