R2: (BLO) Sc in each st (6).

R3: Sc in each st (6)

R4: Sc, hdc 4, sc (6).

Stuff and fasten off leaving a long tail for sewing.

Sew the inner rings from R2 to R4 using brown yarn and tapestry needle. I used running stitch to make the rings. 

Leaves (make 2):

Using green yarn,

Ch 6, starting from second chain on hook,

[ Sl st, hdc, dc, hdc, sl st ].

Continue to ch 6 and repeat the above instructions given between [..]

Fasten off leaving a long tail for sewing.

Assembling:

• Using the remaining yarn tail from the stump, sew the back loops of stump to the back loops of the top part using a whip stitch.
• Stuff more fiberfill if needed but don’t overstuff at the top
• Sew the small branch between R4-R5 (from the top) on one side of the stump.
• Sew the big branch between R8-R9 (from the top) on the other side of the stump.
• Add in the leaf on the big branch.
• Sew the other leaf at the top or side of the stump.
• Finally embroider the mouth and add in blush.

    And the tree stump is now done!
