The positions for extremities are as following:

The whole round has 72sc.

72sc = head (8sc) + 6sc-space + right frontfin (5sc) + 8sc-space + right leg (5sc) + 5sc-space + tail (6sc) + 5sc-space + left leg (5sc) + 8sc-space + left frontfin (5sc) + 5sc-

space

Note: If it is too difficult to begin extremities as described below, just chain the number of

stitches you need for the first row, follow instructions and sew extremities to body.

Head:

When you look at the seem between shell and body, you see that there are two parallelrows of sc.

Work over the upper row 8sc, turn, and work 8sc over the lower row:
