At this stage, I advise you to insert the wire. Behind the front wall of the loop is the top of the head. The wire must be inserted where knitted for both walls of the loop. It is better to do this of course when already tied up to the 35th row. Wire about 10 cm, bend it into a g-shaped

We insert the insole, you can insert the wire at this stage, or you can insert it as you knit several rows, it is much more convenient and the wire will not interfere when connecting the legs and knitting the tep. If you nevertheless decided to insert the wire now, then do not forget to put weighting materials (these can be like special weighting materials, which are stores for needlework, or like glass sold in may be pebbles, in my case decorativepebbles), Tip: hide the pebbles in the fillers, otherwise they will be felt and protrude after the toy is filled. You can fill the leg with a little filler
