Update, February 2016: Find hints and tips, including in-progress photos, for the Wiener Dog at http://www.textilefusion.com/bookblog/?p=1136.

In honor of National Take Your Dog to Work Day, here’s a sweet dachshund to make for this or any occasion.

The dog’s body is worked in one round. The details are added in the next two rounds. Add an eye or collar, if desired.

The pattern is on pages 40-41 of the book. I’ve corrected the spelling of the title for this entry in Ravelry.

Keep track of your crocheted doxie, because you’ll need it at the end of October--Hallo-wiener Dog!

National Take Your Dog to Work Day is the Friday after Father’s Day.
