FINISHING THE EYES AND EYEBROWS (optional)
Using some black yarn or embroidery thread add eyelashes and eyebrows, this is where you can make your Lovey your own, have fun with it. I added the pins to show you where to add the eyebrows, but I opted to leave them out. I have included a link to a useful video tutorial to assist you with making the eyes.

ATTACHING THE WINGS THE HEAD
Insert a pin into the centre back of the head on round 28, then count 5 rows to the left and 5 rows to the right. Place a pin in the 5th row stitches. Then pin one wing to the one side and one wing to the other side – you want the wings to face down and you will sew the underneath part of the wings to the head. Using the tail ends sew the wing to the head. Weave in ends.
ATTACHING THE POM POMS TO THE LOVEY BLANKET
Using the tail ends of each pom pom sew one pom pom to each end of three corners. Weave in ends.
ATTACHING THE MOON TO THE LOVEY BLANKET
Using the tail end of the moon, attach it to the 4th corner. Weave in ends.
ATTACHING THE HEAD TO THE LOVEY BLANKET
Place the lovey blanket with the wrong side facing the bottom side of the head, with the corner that has the moon attached to it facing towards the beak. Pin the blanket in place. Using a 30 cm piece of yarn the same colour as the section of the lovey blanket that you are going to attach to the head so that the stitches are not visible. I used (SUN RAY). Sew the lovey blanket to the bottom of the head between the wings. I have added a photo to show you the approximate stitch placement which is found in the Photo Tutorial Crochet Pattern which you can download as it was included in your purchase.
