knitted beagle strap



This is the other design for a doggy strap - hubs thinks it looks more like a Pekingese pup!

The ears, nose, eyes and mouth are sewn onto head after the head is completed.
The yarn I used is Daiso’s acrylic yarn in white, camel and black. Approximately 10 m of white and 20 m of camel colour yarn is required.

Materials
Needles: two sets of 3.3 mm DPNs.
Yarn: 45 g (77m) of Daiso Acrylic medium thick yarn (100% acrylic) each colour;
Colour A: White (Dye lot: 12 AG);
Colour B: Camel (Dye lot: 12 J);
Colour C: Black (Dye lot: 11 AN). (require just about 20 cms for the mouth and nose)

Stuffing: Polyester 100%.
Measurement
Finished measurements: approximately 6 x 6 cm after stuffed.
