I marked the eyes and mouth off with dressmaker pins first so I would knot where to stitch. The eyes begin 5 ¼ inches up from the brim of the hat. They are 1 ¾ inches high and 2 inches apart from each other. After I filled in the eyes with the black yarn, I went in with the white yarn to add pupils. The mouth is 3 inches wide and the bottom part is 2 ¾ inches up from the brim of the hat.
