Crochet a chain of 41 ch (30 ch for the BASE CHAIN, 11 ch for the first curl).

Then make 2 sc in the BASE CHAIN. Then crochet 11 ch and return back making 2 sc in each chain (second curl). 

Make 10 such curls. 

Then make 5 more curls, but with 8 ch as the base (they will be shorter).

Fasten off and hide the tail. 

Assembly and Finishing: 

I first pin all the pieces with pins, if everything fits, then sew them. You can do it as you prefer, as you are used to. 

The wide part of the head is the cheeks, and the narrow part is the top of the head. 

Referencing the photo, sew the muzzle, stuffing it as you go. Embroider the nostrils and mouth. 

Sew the ears on the 4th round from the top of the head. 

Sew the mane between the ears. 

Calculate the eye indentations: Move up 2-3 rounds from the muzzle – this is the height where the eyes will be placed, and the distance between the eyes is the width of the muzzle. Insert the needle from one point to another and make the indentations. 

Then sew or glue the eyes, you can embroider eyelashes and eyebrows. 

Sew the upper arms on the penultimate round of the body. 

Sew the head to the body. 

Finally, sew the polka dots. I also pin them first. You can make more or fewer as you like. 

Tail: 

Cut 3 strands of black yarn approximately 25 cm each, pull through a sc where the tail will be, and braid. Knot the ends. Trim the excess, leaving a small tassel. 

Vest: 

1: Chain 15. Starting from the 3rd ch from the hook, 13 hdc, turn 

2-5: Ch 2, 13 hdc, turn 

6: Ch 2, 5 hdc, turn 

7-9: Ch 2, 5 hdc, turn 

10: Ch 2, 5 hdc, 10 ch, turn 

11: Starting from the 3rd ch from the hook, 13 hdc, turn 

12-21: 13 hdc, turn 

22: Ch 2, 5 hdc, turn 

23-25: Ch 2, 5 hdc, turn 

26: Ch 2, 5 hdc, 10 ch, turn 

27: Starting from the 3rd ch from the hook, 13 hdc, turn 

28-30: Ch 2, 13 hdc, turn 

31: Ch 2, hdc, ch, skip 1 stitch, 11 hdc. 

Finish crocheting. Cut the yarn and hide the tails. Sew the shoulders (a few stitches). Sew on the button. The vest is ready.
