Find round 30, the one you work on in the back loop, and attach the strings in the remaining front loop—15 strings on one side and 15 on the other. Leave 12 stitches in front of the Elf (her face) without attaching the hair strings. Braid the hair. Close the braid with a little piece of red yarn.
- With the same color yarn, embroider hair strings. Starting in round 27 and going up to her head (here, it doesn’t matter how high you embroider, it will be covered with the hat; only rounds 27 and 28 will be seen with the hair detail).
- Embroider the eyes in round 26, leaving 4 stitches between them.
- Crochet the ears by making: chain 4, 1sl, 1sc, 1dc (make two of them)
- Sew the ears in round 26, 4 stitches away from the eyes. Pull a couple of hair strings in front of the ear.
- With white color yarn, embroider the snowflakes on the hat. Make a bigger one in the center and two little ones on the sides.
- Add the hat, and sew the hat on the Elf’s head.
- Make a square on her belt with a piece of golden embroidery thread.
