ASSEMBLY
Attach the Head to the Body.
Attach the Horn to the front of the Head, I attached mine across rounds 10-12 of the Head.
Attach Legs to the side of the Body, centered with the arms, across Rounds 6-10.
Attach Arms to the Body, centered with the Legs, across Rounds 15-18.
Attach the Mane to the Back of the Head, behind the Horn and in between the Ears. I like to do 2 rows of 3 but can add more or less.
Attach the Tail to the back of the Body in between rounds 6-7. I like to do 1 row of 3 but you always add more.
