Tip: Lay glasses down first to pick the placement of the eyes.

Finishing & Tips:

• Before attaching safety eyes, confirm placement by laying your glasses across the holder so the temples rest behind the ears.
• Weave in all ends securely so the holder is neat and durable.
• To customize size, adjust the starting chain or add/subtract rounds to the body to better fit larger or smaller glasses.
• Use contrasting yarn for the nose and mouth to make facial details stand out.
• Safety note: if giving this to a child, consider using embroidered eyes instead of safety eyes for added safety.
