Step back from the center of the head 3 rows and sew the ears.
Step back from the skirt 9 rows and sew the snout, adding a little stuffing during the sewing process. Using darker yarn (GAZZAL Baby Cotton color 3412), embroider the nostrils. Insert the needle at the back of the head, bring it out at the snout, make a couple of stitches, and bring the thread back to the back of the head, slightly tightening it. Repeat this for the second nostril.
Attach the eyes and embroider the whites of the eyes with white thread. Embroider the eyelashes, eyebrows, and mouth with black embroidery floss.
Tint the inside of the ears, the edge of the snout, a little on the nostrils, and the cheeks.
Sew the bow onto the ear.
On the top of the head, you can attach a thread, chain some ch, and make a loop so you can hang.
Our little piggy is ready!
Happy crocheting!
