For a Variation Like a Poodle:

  • Yarn: Choose colors like white or brown to match a poodle’s coat.
  • Crochet Hook: Select a size based on yarn thickness.

Additional Steps for a Poodle:

  1. Head: Begin with a round shape for the head using the magic ring and crochet stitches. Add the ears in a similar way, either using single or half-double crochet stitches.

  3. Tail: Crochet a thin, elongated shape for the tail, then attach it to the back of the body.
  4. Details: Use black yarn to crochet or embroider eyes and nose for added dimension.
