Optional - Add an extra length of elastic around the wrist at the end of the paw cover.

Step 4 - Attach the ends of the elastic to the sides of the paws.

Fox Tail

Step 4 - Taking a length of elastic long enough to wrap around the waist, sew the ends together and attach to the straight top end of the tail.
