Tips for Iconic Mickey Ears
Mickey’s round ears define the whole silhouette, so make them firm by crocheting two circles and joining them, or by stuffing them very lightly. Attach them high on the head, spaced evenly, and check the symmetry from the front before sewing permanently. The two white buttons on the red shorts are small but essential details that make the character instantly recognizable.
