MAKING THE FACE:
Place the safety doll eyes beneath the 4th row from the top. Make sure to place the safety doll eye in the top of the dc stitch and not between the dc stitches. I had approximately 3 st between the eyes.
Cheeks: Use your pink colored yarn. Make 2.
-Using the magic circle technique, make 6sc into the magic circle. Slst. FO. (6 total)
***Alternative to the magic circle:
-Ch2 -Work all of your stitches in the second ch from the hook. Do not count the 1st ch you skipped as a stitch.
If you need additional help with the magic circle, here is the direct link to the YouTube video tutorial: Magic circle YouTube video tutorial
Use the pictures above as a guide, and sew the cheeks in place.
Embroidering the mouth: Use your black colored yarn.

PLACING THE POLY FOAM:
First step: Cut out the poly foam in a square the size of the tooth and 1” thick.
Second step: Trace around the tooth with a colored marker and then cut out the tooth shape 1cm from the traced border.
Third step: Sandwich the poly foam between the front tooth panel and the back tooth panel.

CROCHETING THE TOOTH BORDER: Use the main colored yarn.
Join your yarn in the bottom right corner of the tooth. Along the sides of the tooth you will be crocheting 2sc in the space below the dc (The dc stitch will be on it’s side). Make 2sc in each dc space along the side. Around any corners on the tooth make an extra sc in the space before and after the curve (For example, 3sc in the dc space before a curve. Along the top/bottom of the tooth, you will make 1sc in every st. So, after a curve, or before a curve, you will make 2sc into the same st. This will help the curves lay flat by making the extra stitches). Crochet around the border of the tooth (Bury any loose yarn ends as you are crocheting), which will combine the front and back panel of the tooth and sandwich the poly foam. When you reach the beginning st, slst and FO. Bury your remaining loose yarn end (s).
BACK POCKET: Use your main colored yarn.
