First decorate the lower lip. To do this cut a piece of wire, bend in the shape of the lip and insert in the lower lip. Sew the lip along its contour by invisible stitches to fix a wire inside. fasten with several stitches the cheeks (the dangling parts of the muzzle), so as later you can not put the stuffing inside them. The stitches should be placed there, where at the photo you can see a yellow stripe.
Sew the tongue in the place where the head is connected with the lower lip.
Stuff the nose rather tight. Insert a wire from the neck in the head through the opening of 3 ch. Connect a wire of the lower jaw with a wire of the neck, wind with an adhesive plaster. Sew the head to the neck.
Crochet the head to the end, stuffing it in the course of crocheting.

Crochet round the ear with sc inserting a wire for beading between the rows.
Tightening of the eye-sockets.
Mark 2 points in the middle of the eye-sockets at the both sides of the nose bridge (in total there are 4 points). Make the tightenings – right-left upper points, then left-right lower points. Repeat 2-3 times, you should get the nose bridge. Fasten off and cut a thread.
Sewing of the ears
The ears should be sewn for two rows upper than a fold, approx. in the area of the 28th row. The edges of the ears are placed along the edges of a fold.
It is necessary to tighten the toes on the legs
Making the eyes and nose
For the eyes I use a polymer clay Sonnet (you can use any you like) of white and black colors.
For the eyes
Cut a piece of white polymer clay and make a ball approx. 1.5 cm in diameter.
Cut it in half with a penknife, slightly smooth a semicircle so as it will be not very prominent. Mark the places for the eyes with a dots. I make two balls 0.3 mm in diameter from a black polymer clay and insert them in the marked places, slightly smooth the pupils so as they will not be upper than the eyes themselves
For the nose
Cut a piece of black polymer clay, make a ball 1.5 cm in diameter. You should give to a ball a shape of the nose. Make a small groove in the middle with a riding-crop not reaching the top approx. for a half. Make two cavities for the nostrils with a dots. And from the nostrils make the grooves with a riding-crop till the bottom of the nose. You can make the top of the nose textured with a dots.
It is necessary to bake in an oven with a temperature 130 degrees for 30 minutes. After the nose completely dries it is necessary to cover it with a glossy varnish for a polymer clay. I use a varnish Sonnet for polymer clay.
Then glue the eyes and nose, put on a collar and your Doberman is ready!!!
