Eyes and Wings:
Insert Eyes:
- Place 8mm safety eyes between round 8 and 9 from the start, ensuring they are 5 stitches apart.
Wings:
- It seems there might be a separate instruction for wings, which mentions "8 single crochet in magic ring, 2 single crochet in next stitch" - this likely refers to the start of a wing, but further instruction is needed to complete them.
- Sew the wings at round 8 and 9.
