Cut yarn leaving a 10” tail and using your darning needle carefully take remaining stitches off needle (looping tail yarn through with darning needle). Sew up mouse, leaving base open.
Stuff with catnip and polyester stuffing and then sew up the base leaving the original 3” tail showing as the mouse’s tail. Or if you don’t want to use catnip, then just use the stuffing.
