Assembly

1. Sew the marshmallows onto the bottom the cookie (the ugly side) and stay within the 2 outer rows (following the BLO round)
2. Count 6 rows from the top of each marshmallow. In between the 6th-7th row thread a piece of yarn through only one stitch in each marshmallow.
3. Tie this yarn to make a knot. All the marshmallows should now meet tightly in the center.
4. Cut the yarn short.
5. Sew the strawberry onto the center (on top of the knot we just made). Try to set just outside the second round from the newly created center of each of the marshmallows.
6. Using a scrap of black yarn, sew a mouth onto the strawberry center.
