This cute little scottie dog measures approximately 6cm from nose to tail and is knit using double knitting yarn.

As the pattern requires so little yarn it is an excellent stash buster. The collar can be made from any yarn.

He is knit in one piece from the tip of the tail to nose. His legs, head and ‘ears’ are just worked using increases and decreases.

I used two 4mm black beads for his eyes but you could embroider the eyes instead. I also embroidered a nose using some of the black yarn.

This little dog is ideal as a brooch, just add a safety pin!
