What to focus on
Follow the construction shown in the video and compare the corners after each stage. Check for matching sides and a flat surface. Keep a record of your stitch counts so you can find a missed or added stitch early.
Practice with Andy
Play the video once to see the result, then replay it in short sections as you work. Keep a small sample nearby to test the technique before using it on your finished plushie.
