Notes

I would do the pocket a little differently--rather than putting stitches on waste yarn and casting on new ones, I think I would just pick up for the pocket from existing stitches, as with the Wonderful Wallaby, only top down instead of bottom up.

I used some scrap sock yarn (Wildfoote in Walnut Bark) held double to duplicate stitch the nose and eyes. The nose was four stitches centered in the row immediately above the garter border, with another two stitches centered in the row above that. The eyes are a single row of three stitches. I initially marked placement with locking stitch markers, then counted to check that they were symmetrical. I like the sleepy look.
