This listing is for my small dog amigurumi pattern. You could use it to crochet a poodle, cavachon or bichon puppy.

I have a free version of the pattern on my website.
This PDF pattern is simply for those of you who prefer a PDF version of the pattern, that can be accessed offline or printed.

LANGUAGE: English (US)

ABOUT THE PATTERN:
I used 2 yarns held together - one cotton 4-ply/fingering and one worsted/Aran Bouclé yarn. Feel free to experiment with different yarns to achieve different results.
In the step-by-step photos I used one yarn only to keep the instructions clear and easy to understand.

MATERIALS AND TOOLS:

  • For the fluffy dog I used cotton yarn in Drops Alpaca (4 Ply/Fingering) and Drops Alpaca Boucle (Aran/worsted) in Off White held together
  • with a 3.5mm / size E crochet hook
  • In the tutorial, I used cotton yarn in DK / light worsted weight in off-white I used Paintbox Yarns Cotton DK in Champagne White
  • with a 2.5mm crochet hook / between size B-1 or C-2
  • 5mm safety eyes
  • Black embroidery floss
  • Fiberfill Stitch marker
  • Yarn needle
  • Large-eyed sewing needle
  • Sewing pins
  • Scissors

CONSTRUCTION:
The little dog is crocheted from bottom to top. The legs are crocheted on. The ears, head and tail are sewn on. The nose is embroidered.

SIZE:
If using the recommended yarn weight and hook size your amigurumi dog will be about 2.4” / 6cm tall and 3.1” / 8cm long (fluffy version with yarns held together and 3.5mm hook)
OR
1.8” / 4.5cm tall and 2.4” / 6cm long (version with DK/light worsted yarn and 2.5cm hook)
