Prepare 4 pieces of thin wire, each about 1.5 times the length of a leaf. Lightly grease the wire with glue and wrap it with the same yarn. Let dry. Then apply a wire to the middle of the leaf, departing from the upper tip of 1 cm, and sew with a thread or split yarn. Stitches are laid in the same direction as the winding. Hide or glue all the tips of the threads.
Hands (make 2)
Prepare 2 pieces of thin wire 18-20 cm, bend in half, forming a loop on the bend. Work with light green yarn.

Fasten the light green thread with a bundle, start winding the wire as an eight to a height of 8 cm, then another 2.5 cm at once both ends of the wire. Attach hands, continue to wind another 2 cm, glue the thread. Wrap the remaining ends of the wire with a plaster.

Make a pom-pom from a yellow yarn, which is larger than the hat. I wrapped a suitable box, pulled the coils in the middle, cut the threads. Pom-pom flattened on one side, trimmed. Top hat smeared with glue and pasted on it pom-pom.
Decor
Make a tightening of the eyes and mouth, insert the needle with a strong thread in the neck, leaving the tip, withdraw at point 1 (see photo). Further according to the scheme:
- means the thread inside the head,
= means thread stretch over the head.
1=2-3=4-5=6
Pull the thread back to the back of the head, connect the two knots with the left tip. If necessary, repeat.
Embroider a smile with a pink thread, nose - light green.
Grease the upper tip of the stem with glue, gently push the head over it through the left hole.
Eyes painted with acrylic paint on the fabric, cut and glue after drying. Also eyes can be made from beads.
Optionally, you can glue eyelashes, draw freckles and cheeks!
Dandelion's ready!
