Lenny the Labrador is handsome, loyal and quite naughty. He loves spending time with his humans and fetching, knocking things over with his tail on the way… and not always bringing back what he should… He sits 8 inches tall (when made with the recommended materials).

The 12 page pattern is intermediate skill level and is available in US and UK terminology – both versions will be available for you to download. It is clear to follow with detailed instructions and lots of pictures for step by step making and assembly. There are also picture instructions for colour change, back loop only and invisible finish.

The following stitches/techniques are used in this pattern:
US Terminology - slip stitch, magic ring, single crochet, double crochet, back loop only, increase, decrease (sc2tog), colour change, invisible finish
UK Terminology - slip stitch, magic ring, double crochet, treble, back loop only, increase, decrease (dc2tog), colour change, invisible finish

Recommended Materials:

• Yarn: I have made Lenny using Paintbox Yarns Wool Mix Aran (Aran/worsted weight yarn) - colour and weight details in pattern
• Hook: 4mm (G) crochet hook
• Stuffing: I use polyester filling
• Safety eyes: I have used 15mm plastic safety eyes, but you can embroider the eyes on if you prefer
• Yarn needle
• Pins
• (A stitch marker and row counter are useful)
