*Below, I put an N as the number of st moved in case the wings are not in the sides, which means your starting st has moved. Following the instructions below, subtract N to get the number of scs you need to make before crocheting the wings. Note: You don’t need to subtract anything if you’re starting st is only slightly to the left like in the photo. I marked a line so you can see where my starting sts are.
R40: (SC 18 – N), together with left wing, SC 5), (SC 7 – N). (30)
R41: (SC 2 – N), (together with right wing, SC 5), (SC 17 – N). (30)
