Assembly
Sew the hat onto your scarecrow. Make sure his legs are stuffed firmly, and sew the soles around the bottom of your scarecrow’s boots. Now cut pieces of tan colored yarn and add the hair and straw around his ankles and wrists. Sew on his eyebrows and a mouth. Cut a little orange triangle from felt for his nose. Sew the portion under his belly between his legs closed, but make sure he is stuffed firmly first. Weave in all of your ends and trim them! Now enjoy your little kawaii scarecrow! Thank you for joining Furls Crochet for this fall inspired free ami pattern!
