Rnd 23. Close with 6 sc, and leave long thread for sewing.
Fold rows 19 to 23 to the back of the head, and sew on the sides of the head with a thread of the same color to help support it. Row 23 will be sewn to the shell at an opportune time.
Place the safety eyes between rows 11 and 12, where you made the dec.
Put the filling from row 16 onwards, adding more as you weave. Do not fill the 12 sc rows.
Optional: make the expression on the little face, squinting the eyes, and embroider with black embroidery thread, the eyelashes and eyebrows.

Assembly
Position the turtle parts on the upper shell, with the head facing the tail, front paws one on each side of the head, the hind paws one on each side of the tail. Sew the parts in the loops left over from row 9 at the top of the hull. Position the bottom of the hull, and sew in the same place where the head and limbs were sewn. Gradually add filling, until the hull becomes “fat” and very firm. Fasten and hide the thread. With wire in the same color as the hull, make a few stitches, fastening the head to the hull, so that it stands upright. Take care not to appear on the sides of the turtle… There are only about 3 or 4 little dots, just so that the little head doesn’t get slack or fall forward.
