- To close the body, decrease symmetrically by following these steps:
- Round 11: (2 sc, dec) around.
- Round 12: (1 sc, dec) around.
- Round 13: dec around until you have a small opening.
- Stuff the body with fiberfill stuffing before closing it completely.

- Rounds 3-7: Single crochet around (sc) for 5 rounds.
- To close, decrease as follows:

Adding Horns and Ears
