Eyelids crocheting


My birds got wings, head and beak, only eyes were missing.
By a small ball of stitched piece of socks I created the eyeballs and sew it to the crocheted head.
The small bird got a crocheted eye lids.
For the bigger bird it was more complicated, as this bird ordered a made to measure pair of eyelids with eyelashes.

I crocheted both in one piece

and attached it to the head, same as I did with the eyeballs.

It was a very gentle operation, I had to keep it very accurately right on its place, taking care of not causing any damage to the bird's eyesight.

Here it is the bird with its new eyelids-eyelashes.
