Step 5. Starting between the 1st and 2nd circle, draw an arc that ends between the 3rd and 4th circle
This will be the head.

Step 6. Draw another arc slightly larger than the first one, starting between the 3rd and 4th circle and ending on the last one
This will be the body.

Step 7. Make a small triangle-style ponytail on the top side of the larger bow

Step 8. Draw a small nose between the 2nd and 3rd circle
