Baby Bulbasaur (with pattern)

Hey everyone!  It's been a while since I've made a Pokemon. I really enjoyed making this guy and I love how he turned out!  I'm planning on making the other starter Pokemon as well and maybe re-making Pikachu?  We shall see.

So this pattern is pretty similar to my "Derpy Pooh" pattern   but with some changes and of course the addition of the bulb (Is it just me or does it totally look like garlic?).  He ended up being about 6 inches long.  All the details (eyes, spots, claws) are needle felted on and I managed not to stab myself this time!

As usual, let me know if I've made any errors!  And since I don't own this character, please don't sell the finished product and please credit me should you use or reference this pattern!  Much appreciated and happy crocheting!

Note: The FO point should be approximately in the midline of the back of his head. Yes, it sort of matters because he should have subtle cheeks and a slight nose bulge.  Knowing where you are will help you stuff "strategically".

Bulb: (requires 2 steps)

Step 1:

-Magic ring: 6
-Inc around (12)
-[Sc, inc] around (18)
-[Sc 2, inc] around (24)
-Sc around (24)
-[Sc 3, inc] around (30)
-[Sc 4, inc] around (36)
-Sc around 3 times (36)
-[Sc 5, inc] around (42)
-[Sc 6, inc] around (48)
-[Sc 7, inc] around (54)
-Sc around 2 times (54)
-[Sc 7, dec] around (48)
-[Sc 6, dec] around (42)
-[Sc 5, dec] around (36)
-[Sc 4, dec] around (30)
-[Sc 3, dec] around (24)
-[Sc 6, dec] around (21)
-[Sc 5, dec] around (18)
-[Sc 4, dec] around (15)
-[Sc 3, dec] around (12)<--This round is used in step 2
-Dec around in inner loops only (6)
-FO (Sew opening shut but avoid touching the outer loops that will be used in Step 2)

Step 2: (This step is for the leaves at the top of the bulb.  Holding the bulb upside down, work in the outer loops of the second to last row from Step 1)

-Sc around (12)
-[Sl st, hdc inc] around (18) <--This step makes the leaves at the top of the bulb wavy
-FO

Note:  After attaching the bulb to the body, I stretched yarn over the surface to divide it into 6 segments.  I chose to use 2 strands of yarn twisted together so it would be more stable, but whatever works!
