Attached to the brim ridge for Eevee's signature fluff!

Method 1 - Loop Stitch Mane:
Join cream yarn at brim ridge (Rnd 31).
Work loop stitch around entire brim:
- Insert hook, wrap yarn around finger 2x
- Pull both loops through, yarn over, pull through all
- Continue around (84 loops)
Fasten off.

Method 2 - Fringe Mane (Easier):
Cut 84 pieces of cream yarn, each 6" long.
Fold each piece in half.
Use crochet hook to pull folded loop through brim ridge.
Pull yarn ends through loop, tighten.
Repeat around entire brim.
Trim to desired fluffiness (~2" long).

Brush fringe with a pet brush for extra fluff!

Ear Placement:
- Position ears about 4" apart on top of beanie
- Eevee's ears point UP and slightly outward
- Sew securely around the base, stuff lightly before closing

Optional Face:
- Eyes: Black safety eyes (15mm) or embroidered
- Nose: Small black triangle
- Place face features centered, about 3" above mane

Pro Tips:

• Use a warm chocolate brown - not too dark!
• Cream yarn should match Eevee's collar ruff color
• Brush the mane fringe for authentic fluffy look
• Ears should be large - about 4-5" tall
• Stuff ears lightly so they stand up
• For Eeveelutions, just change the colors!
