Join your Crewmates and figure out who Among Us are SUS! Did I get that right?? Either way all of my Nephews and Nieces are completely stoked that they’re getting these plushies in the mail! Work these up in different colours and swap which side they wear their backpacks 🎒- so they can talk to each other of course!

Have fun with these and gift them to all the lil crewmates in your life!

Assembly:

Body: Line up both body panels on top of each other. With black and starting at either side of the body, sc through both panels. Begin edging by sc along the edge of the body, before you close up the edging, stuff with polyfil. Use small handfuls of polyfil to fill in the legs and body. Do not overstuff. They should be plump but not firm. Close up the body with the remaining of the edging. Bind off. Weave in ends.

Backback: Align the backpack parts on top of each other. Similarly to the body and using black, sc through both panels attaching them together. Continue edging around the entire backpack (even after the front part of the backpack drops off: Bind off leaving a long tail which we will use to sew the backpack on to the body.

Visor: with black, sc around the edge of the visor. Bind off leaving a long tail which we will use to sew the visor on to the body.

Attach the backpack to the back of the body (the opposite side of the sc edging). Position to either side, allowing for the front of the backpack to over hang and be visible from the front.

Attach the visor on the front of the body, positioned to the opposite side that the backpack was poisoned on.

Weave in ends and ENJOY!
