Notes on the instructions:
TIP TO FILL:
Gradually fill with crochet with cotton wool or Brushed Alpaca Silk.
CROCHET TIP:
Each round with dc starts with 1 ch (this does NOT replace the 1st dc) and ends with 1 sl st in the first dc from the beg of round.
Each R with dc is turned with 1 ch - this chord does NOT replace the 1st dc of r.
TIP TO ACCEPT:
Cut off 1 dc by crocheting 2 sts together: insert the needle into the first st, take the thread, insert the needle into the next dc, make 1 turn and pull through all 3 loops on the needle.
And this is how it's done:
