Pattern Notes

Pieces are worked in continuous spiral rounds; use a stitch marker for round tracking.
The magic ring technique ensures a neat, closed start to each part.
Each round starts with a chain (does not count as a stitch), and ends with a slip stitch for seamless construction.
For safety and durability, sew (rather than glue) the snap fastener to arms.
Add stuffing to each piece as you finish for a plump, cuddly effect.
Be creative with face embroidery or color choices to make your Smiski truly your own.
