- Roll tightly from one side, all the way to the center. Clip into place.
- Repeat for the other side.
- Turn over so that the rolls are in the back. Fold up 1/3.
- Fold down the top section so that your washcloth is now folded into thirds.
- Wrap with a rubber band, about 1" from the bottom.
- Pull one layer of rubber band up and over to the top, creating a separation for a face.
- In the last photo, you'll see the rubber band on the top.
- Cut out an earpiece on the fold of your felt.
- Open it flat.
- The washcloth head has two holes running through it. Slide a finger through one to open it up a bit.
- Push earpiece through the hole and out to the other side.
- Add felt pieces to create a face. Glue on craft eyes and add a ribbon for a collar.
- Glue a small pom onto the back for a tail.
