1. CUT THE PATTERN
Print the pattern.
Using the silver pencil trace the pieces on the leather.
Cut out the pieces using a ruler, a square and a cutter (or a sewing scissor).
The pencil is erasable on most leathers with a simple eraser (do not use on vegetable tanned leather). We advise you to do a test beforehand to validate the erasable function on your leather. 
- Piece n°1 (head) – 2 times
- Part n°2 (body) – 2 times
- Part n°3 (feet) – 2 times
- Part n°4 (arm) – 4 times
- Piece n°5 (eyes) – 2 times => 3.5 cm cookie cutter
