Dash The Dog

Dash The Dog amigurumi pattern is the perfect crochet pattern for puppy lovers.

Skill Level: Easy

The pattern is written in U.S. crochet terms, complete with clear instructions and  pictures to help you along the way. Dash The Dog is crocheted in continuous spirals without joining the rounds. I suggest using a stitch marker or different color yarn to keep track of each round. Dash The Dog crocheted in worsted weight yarn is approximately five inches tall.  Be aware that size may vary depending on the yarn and hook size used. Gauge is not particularly important, just be consistent with the tension you are using. And most importantly, have fun!

How to Do a Seamless Join: https://yarnsociety.com/tutorials/how-to-do-a-seamless-join-on-an-open-piece/

  • Using Color Beige
  • R1: 4 sc into a magic circle (4 sts)

    Don't pull the middle tight. The safety eye will be placed in the middle.

  • Alternate way to begin: chain 2, sc 4 times in 2nd chain from hook {4 sts}
  • R2: (inc) 4 times {8 sts}
  • For A Seamless Join On An Open Piece:
  • Cut the working yarn, leaving a small tail. Pull the yarn through the last stitch.
  • Thread the remaining yarn through an embroidery needle. Insert the needle under both loops of the stitch to the left of the last stitch - from outside to inside.
  • Then insert your needle through the middle of the V - of the last crocheted stitch - from outside to inside.
  • Insert a 9mm safety eye through the middle of the eye patch. Do not attach the back of the safety eye. Weave in all ends. Set aside until assembly.
