Funny Little Puppy






The puppies are my first written pattern. The measure about 13 cm from head to tail (5 inches). I made all the parts and sew them at the end. I like to use pins, it's easier to work with them and especially for this pattern because the puppy has to stay on its feets. Be sure they can stand up before sewing them. Sew the head first. You can add some more stuffings in the front legs to make them stronger.
As you can see you can play with colours here. The colour change can be seamless. Start with colour A. Finish the last single crochet of the round with colour B, then make a slip stitch. The colour change is specific since you are working in spiral.

Supplies:
cotton yarn, 3.0 mm crochet hook, marker, stuffing, needle for sewing, scissors,
safety eyes and nose or dark yarn for those
