SUPPLIES

cotton yarn (e.g. Schachenmayr Catania 125m/50g) in two colors: brown and white, a bit of pink for the nose, crochet hook 3 mm, Polyester fiberfill stuffing, 2 black beads or safety eyes, scissors, yarn needle.

SKILL LEVEL

Easy

SIZE

The ready dog is approx. 21 cm, can be made bigger or smaller depending on the yarn and hook you use.

SKILLS YOU NEED

chain, single crochet, double crochet, half double crochet, slip stitch, increase, decrease

ABBREVIATIONS

Ch =chain

St = stitch

Sc =single crochet

Sl st = slip stitch

dec = decrease stitch (two single crochets together)

inc = increase stitch (two single crochets into one stitch)

Dc = double crochet

Rnd = Round

TIPPS

  • Do not join rounds, work in a continuous spiral.
  • Use a stitch marker or a piece of yarn to mark the end or the beginning of a round
  • All stitches are worked into both loops, unless stated otherwise in the pattern.
  • Dog can be made in any desired colours.

Seamsless way of changing color when working in the round

Pick up the new color at the end of the round: inset your hook into the stitch, yarn over the new color and pull through the stitch and the loop on your hook to complete the stitch.

Front Post Double Crochet:

Yarn over, insert your hook between the posts of the first and second stitch of the row below, and then from back to front again between the posts of the second and third stitches

Yarn over and draw the yarn around the post of the stitch. You now have 3 loops on the hook

Yarn over and draw the yarn through the 2 loops on the hook, twice. 

One front post double crochet (FP dc) is complete.
