Karolane Fiola also tested this pattern for me and she embroidered all the details onto the face.
Facial details:
WITH SAFETY EYES:
Eyes:
With White cotton yarn, place a long stitch against the outer corner of the eye. be careful not to pull it so tight that it slips under the eyes.
Nose:
With the pink yarn from the tail and feet, embroider a square nose between the eyes. Placement of the nose, between rounds 13/14, 4 stitches wide.
lip split, whiskers, and brows:
Make sure you take a long string of thin cotton thread or embroidery floss. Make the lip first, from the center at the bottom of the nose down 4 rounds make a vertical stitch. from there, make one side of the whiskers, 5 stitches away from the lip between the 4 rounds. Place the top whisker at an angle with the outer corner pointing up, the middle whisker should be straight and the bottom whisker should be in a downward angle.
Follow the same instruction on the opposite side. The brows are last, make two small downward stitches above each eye, one round wide.
And you are done! I hope you enjoyed making this mouse as much as I did!
