Won Judge’s Choice in its class at the 2019 Alameda County Fair!

My husband, friends, and Alameda County Fair judges can’t all be wrong about this cutie pie. My initial dissatisfaction with my work must be down to perfectionism, the enemy of the good. He’s huge, squishy, and lovable. I hope he accepts my sincerest apologies for not loving him enough

This pup is gigantic! He is definitely cute and cuddly, but I really do not think I did a good job here, but my husband and the folks of the county fair seem to like it. I worked really hard on this project, but this is not my best work.

I still did not crochet tightly enough for the stuffing not to show. I used the smallest hook I could manage with the yarn.

I had a tough time figuring out how to seam the snout to make a little mouth. I have serious spatial reasoning abilities. It’s me, not the pattern.
