Head:
Crocheted from front of nose to back of head
Starting with Color F:

1. Make 6 sc into a magic ring= 6
2. Increase in each st around= 12
3. (sc, inc) x 6= 18
4. 3 dc in the next 2 stitches, 2 sl, 3 dc in the next 2 stitches, 12 sc= 26
   Change to Color B:
5. BLO, 6 sc, dec(You will be decreasing in the 2 sl from previous round), 16 sc, dec= 24
6. (7 sc, inc) x 3= 27
7. sc in each st around
8. (8 sc, inc) x 3= 30
9. sc in each st around
10. (2 sc, inc) x 6, 12 sc= 36
11. (3 sc, inc) x 6, 12 sc= 42
12. (4 sc, inc) x 6, 12 sc= 48
13. (5 sc, inc) x 6, 12 sc= 54
    Place eyes between rounds 11 and 12, leaving 13 holes between them. 1st eye is placed before
    the 2nd increase. Count 13 holes after the first eye and place the 2nd eye. If you want the
    sunken eye look, do not place the backs of the eyes on until round 22.
    TIP! You may have to adjust the eye placement depending on yarn and hook size you use.

    Now for the eyes. Stuff the head well. Cut a long piece of yarn and remove the eyes. Place the
    needle in the hole where the first eye was and thread the needle into a hole next to the eye
    hole. Go back and forth between each eye hole repeating the process from the first eye. Pull
    slightly on the yarn after going through each hole. Do this about 3 times on each side until you
    reach the look you want.

To place the backs of the eyes you will need to remove most of the stuffing to place the
washers on the eyes then re stuff it.

Assembly
Head and Body:

1. Cut a long strand of white yarn. Thread your needle with the strand. Insert the needle
   into a hole on the head. Bring the needle up to a corner on the lower eye. Bring the
   needle around the eye to a corner on the upper eye. Pull tightly on the strand. Repeat
   for the 2nd eye. This gives the highlight on the eye.
2. Take a long strand of black yarn. Thread your needle and insert the needle into a hole
   on the body. Embroider some black spots for watermelon seeds on the dark pink part of
   the dress.
3. Take a long strand of black embroidery thread and embroider eyelashes on the face.
4. Pin the head to the body for extra support. You may need to add more stuffing as you
   sew.
5. Sew the head onto the body.

   You can use different eye and nose sizes. You might have to adjust the placements if you
   change the sizes.
   You can use different hook sizes and weights of yarn. It will just change the size of your pig and
   you might need to adjust eye and nose placement.
   How you stuff matters! The type of stuffing you use, how you stuff, all this matters on how your
   pig turns out. I prefer Polyfil stuffing but you can use other types.
