Shih Tzu Puppy — no-sew amigurumi crochet pattern, PDF in 4 languages

The whole show-dog look is crocheted in: the topknot is a ring of chain loops picked up on the crown, the bow is a single bobble, and the long ears are tall-stitch fans picked up from the head.

Image note: product photos are digital renders of the finished design; every round, stitch count and construction detail in the pattern is original to us.
