I think I can finally see some light at the end of a present making tunnel!
May I present Perry. Perry the Puppy
He is destined for a recent addition to our extended family. Two year old Oscar.
It was a FREE pattern and can be found here.
Unfortunately the pattern is in Spanish and was also a pdf so I couldn’t use a translator thingy. However having made one or two crochet amigurumi before I found it very simple to translate and follow. The puppy came together like a dream.
This being my last week of work before our 2 week Christmas break (the beauty of working in the construction industry!)I also made 4 dozen of these to take into work. My husband asked if he could submit an invoice for the ingredients. I told him to stop being so bah-humbug.
Looking at these photos, I’ve just realised I’ve forgotten to sew on his tail.
Just the gecko and cat to finish then.
Love, Lucie xx
I got all excited thinking you had a real puppy! But he is gorgeous. Those mince pies look deeeelicious! I must make some 🙂

Oh I wish I had a real puppy to tell you about! But that would mean winning the lottery first as my work days are sooooo long ;(

I’m very lucky that Molls can either go to my Mum’s or come with me. Do you feel like your holiday was eons ago now?!

Well I do and I don’t. A ‘normal’ holiday fades away very quickly but I’ve come away with so many special vivid memories this time that it still feels fresh in my mind.
I think it helps that Christmas is NEXT WEEK and so it wasn’t straight back into a work mountain without any breaks to look forward to.

Very cute! Plus – a very sensible and unselfish attitude to dog ownership. Too many people go out for hours and hours and leave dogs alone. Sorry to come over all ‘preachy’.

Not preachy at all. I get quite upset when I see a dog in a cage in a house. We were brought up with Spaniels but my parents owned a hotel/B&B so there was always someone home.

Well I had crocheted the limbs a few weeks ago so all I had left was to sew him together.

He’s very cute! I’m going to try and make some cats from the Ed’s Animals book for my friend’s baby. I’m doing them in the colours of her actual cats. Have you seen that book? I love it!
