The brown isn't lining up correctly! Maybe I'm reading the instructions improperly because at the end, I'm ending up with 15 or more stitches per round. I’m having a heck of a time with the ears.

Fiberfill will always want to expand and wiggle its way out from between stitches. Using a smaller hook than usual to keep your stitches tight and close together helps. I have also read that putting the stuffing inside a piece of old nylon stocking will stop the fiberfill from showing between the stitches (especially using a black stocking when crocheting with black yarn).

My daughter sent me a bag of polyester fiberfill last year, but it is almost gone, and I have not been able to find ANY here in the "Kingdom". The stuff I have seems very "fuzzy" and fibers seem to leak out of the holes. Is there something better? I need to have her send me some more, and want to tell her specifically what to get. Thanks!
