    Step 5 - Using your cover color now you will roll out small string like sections I recommend doing this in sections trying to cover the whole piece at one can be cumbersome and difficult beside we all need a potty break!

    Step 6 - Start with first section of cover color and start a coil around the piece, I recommend to start at the bottom and work you way to the head starting the other way can be hard to finding the center.

  7. Small dsc05355 1317219873

    Continue creating strings and wrapping around the piece all the way up, Dont worry about evenness this helps to add to the crochet look

    I like to give them a little poke at the attach point to make it stick

  11. Small dsc05360 1317220367

    At this step you will also use the last of your cover color to create small legs and attach them.

    Step 8 - Using you last color You will roll even smaller strings to create the stitches

  13. Small dsc05364 1317220533
