Jack the poodle is knit using the magic loop method (or DPNS). US size 4. Please note, it is very difficult to measure gauge with fur yarn. Using suggested needles and yarn, the dog measures about 14 inches long. You will also need embroidery needles for sewing parts, stuffing, eyes, and nose. Scrap yarn for paw pads (or you can try needle felting- I’m happy to help!)
