For the second leg, do not cut the yarn. Crochet 9 stitches between the legs and continue with the body. When crocheting the body, make sure the marker does not shift. If needed, crochet one extra stitch at the end of the round. This keeps the belly color pattern from shifting. Add stuffing as you go.
