Use pins to attach the nose to the head before sewing. This will hep make sure you 
have the nose in the correct position. 
 
The top line of the nose should be directly in between the eyes and sit between rows 
14 and 15 of the head. 
Stuff the nose firmly before sewing. 
 
 
Defining the eyes and nostrils 
Using a doll needle and the dark green used for the main colour.

For the Nostrils – Insert the needle into the back of the head, leave a long tail 
hanging out, and exit through the left nostril. Reinsert the needle into the same 
nostril but a different hole, exit through the back of the head where you originally 
entered. Pull both ends of the yarn hanging out to define the nostril. Once you are 
happy with the indent, tie both ends together 2-3 times to secure. Use a large eyed 
needle, thread both ends into it and reinsert into the same hole they came out of to 
hide them. Repeat this process for the right nostril. 
 
For the eyes – Insert the needle into the back of the head, leave a tail hanging out, 
and exit through the bottom left corner of the right eye. Reinsert the needle in a stitch 
directly next to or above where you came out, exit in the bottom right corner of the 
left eye. Reinsert in a stitch next to or above where you exited and exit through your 
original entry point at the back of the head. Now you need to pull on both ends of 
yarn to define the eyes, also use your fingers to push the eyes slightly closer 
together as you pull the yarn. Once you are happy with how the eyes look, tie both 
ends of yarn together securely. Repeat the entire process for the eyes once more to 
make sure they are secure. When you are finished, thread both ends of the yarn 
onto a large eyed needle and hide inside the head.

Legs and body 
We are going to crochet all four legs and then attach them all together and continue 
making the body. 
Using the main colour and a 3.25mm hook 
1. 6dc in mr (6) 
2. 1inc in each st (12) 
3. (1dc, 1inc) x 6 (18) 
4. (2dc, 1inc) x 6 (24) 
5. (3dc, 1inc) x 6 (30) 
6. BLO – 1dc in each st around (30) 
7. – 14. 1dc in each st around for 8 rounds (30) 
Do three more legs. Leave a long tail on the first three legs. Do not finish off the 
fourth leg, continue as below.

Stand all four legs together as in the picture. The three legs which were finished off 
should stand with their last worked stitch dc towards the centre. The fourth leg 
should be stood with its last worked st at the front ready to join onto the left leg. 
15. Join the right front leg onto the left leg with 1dc in the nearest st (put your 
stitch marker here, this is the beginning of round 15 and also the front of your 
work). Do 20dc around the front left leg, join to back left leg with 1dc, then do 
a further 18dc. Join to back right leg with 1dc then do a further 18dc. Join to 
front right leg with 1dc then do a further 20dc (80) 
Use the leftover yarn tails from each leg to sew the tops of the legs together on the 
inside of the dinosaur.

16. – 28. 1dc in each st around for 13 rounds (80) 
29. (8dc, 1dec) x 8 (72) 
30. 1dc in each st around (72) 
31. (10dc, 1dec) x 6 (66) 
32. 1dc in each st around (66) 
33. (9dc, 1dec) x 6 (60) 
Start stuffing. Make sure each leg is filled firmly. The whole body needs to be filled 
really tightly, this will act as a weight to make sure the dinosaur stands up properly. 
Continue stuffing as you work your way up. 
34. 1dc in each st (60) 
35. (8dc, 1dec) x 6 (54) 
36. (7dc, 1dec) x 6 (48) 
37. (6dc, 1dec) x 6 (42) 
38. (5dc, 1dec) x 6 (36) 
39. (4dc, 1dec) x 6 (30) 
40. (3dc, 1dec) x 6 (24) 
41. (2dc, 1dec) x 6 (18) 
42. (1dc, 1dec) x 6 (12) 
43. (1dec) x 6 (6) 
Finish off and leave a tail for closing the hole. Thread the tail onto a needle. Pick up 
the six remaining stitches on the needle and pull the yarn through all six stitches. Pull 
tightly to close the hole, knot and secure the yarn. Hide the remaining yarn inside the 
body.

Putting Cookie together 
 
Head to body. 
Pin the head to the body to ensure correct positioning before sewing it on. Stuff the 
neck very firmly so that it stands freely. You can use wire if a positionable neck is 
required. 
Make sure the neck is central to the front legs. Pin the front of the neck at a height of 
round 32 of the body, pin the back of the neck at a height of round 42. 
Once you are happy with the positioning, sew the neck to the body.

Tail to body 
Pin the tail to the body to ensure correct positioning before sewing it on. 
Make sure the tail is central to the back legs. The top of the tail should be pinned at 
round 30 of the body and the bottom should be pinned between rounds 19 and 20. 
Once you are happy with positioning, sew the tail to the body.
