The perfect throw pillow for any dog lover!

This pillow is so cute on a bed, couch or use it as a neck support. Use different coloured yarn to customize the dog so he’s yours! This pattern also includes two different options for the ear shape.

With the exception of the ears, this pillow is crocheted in the round, in back loop only single crochet, which creates a ridge-like texture. The pieces are all crocheted separately, then stuffed and stitched together.

This pattern is designed to cover a 18” × 4” / 45cm × 10cm standard cylindrical neck pillow, or you can use stuffing.
