She is stuffed with fiber fill if you choose. You can use other fillings. I used a 3.5mm hook . use stitch markers if you have them or do like me and use a piece of yarn .
Start off with light blue . All of this project is using scrap yarn . Colors black white and red . I love making amigurumi see it take shape before your eyes . The decorating part is the best.
Pattern notes
1. Only in round 1 you will do a slip stitch.
2. Continuous rounds for the remainder of the pattern

Ch2
White
In 2nd ch 8hdc (8hdc)
Slst leave tail to sew in
Pupils
Using a piece of black yarn simply hand sew in
I personally come from the back of the head to give the eye a more secure pupil .(watch video.
Nose
Same as pupil
Using a piece of black yarn I hand sewn the nose start by entering in the back of the head . When you exit the back of the head to continue to the 2nd nostril just re insert the yarn needle being sure to grab yarn just a little so it's not seen in the back of the head
(As seen here and in video for further instructions)

Slst leave tail to sew on
Hair
All I did was cut 14 strads of the red . You fill the hair section as full as your desire amount.
Simply cut sections of 6 or 7 inch strands.
Using your hook simply fold the yarn in half

Otherwise in my 2nd video I also show how you do it .
As you can see the yarn is from a project I never finished. So because of that it curled. No curling iron needed 😆 😆 sorry I crack myself up sometimes .
Last step to this fun project
Not a must but adds another way if you don't have an ornament hook
Ch21 coming back down the ch starting in the 2nd ch do a sc in each leave tail sew 2 ends together to form a loop then handsew in to top of Sally in the middle of the head.
