instructions continued
this one may be a little more difficult to understand in writing so I also included a video from start to finish if that extra help is needed.
top part of overalls
(ch 1 does not count as a stitch)
1. Turn the bear over and find your color change. Count over 18 sc and attach your yarn into that 18th stitch with a slip stitch. Ch 1 and make 1 sc into that same stitch.
2. place 1 sc into each of the next 12 front loop stitches. Ch 1 and turn.
3-6. 13 sc across, ch 1 and turn -4 rows
7. on the last row you will knot off your yarn and leave a long yarn tail for creating the straps. You will take your yarn and go to the back of the bear and attach it by going through one of the front loops in the middle of the bear. Pull the yarn tail back up towards the overalls And attach it into the corner of the overalls.
Knot it off and then weave in your yarn tail.
The video helps better explain this part if you need extra help:
