Correct.

The method for manual conversion of Unicode scalar values to UTF-8 is to
choose the appropriate template from this table:

U+0000 to U+007F: 0--- ----
U+0080 to U+07FF: 110- ---- 10-- ----
U+0800 to U+FFFF: 1110 ---- 10-- ---- 10-- ----
All others: 1111 0--- 10-- ---- 10-- ---- 10-- ----

Then replace the hyphens with the bits of the Unicode scalar value,
*working from right to left*. Stop when all hyphens are gone.
In handwriting, it is more readable to use LOW LINEs than hyphens.
