Toy Poodle
Image information
When the dogs I crocheted for Xmas turned out so cute I wanted to crochet another dog from the Ami Ami Dogs books and decided for this one because I liked the funny ears so much. I used the very cheap but oh so pretty and shiny wool which doesn't work right for pompom animals. Well... it doesn't work right for crocheting either. This dog drove me up a wall because the wool frayed, interlooped and untwisted all the time... Even assembling the doggie took me two weeks because I was peeved after each sewn on leg. As an added bonus the wool is so stiff that the ears look like an exploded broom.
Very sad. One day I'll make the doggie again and then I'll use decent wool.
Sadly I still have several skeins of this wool. What will I do with it... crochet is a no-go, pompom animals are a no-go and it's not suitable as doll hair either the way it frays. Well, I'll find something to make from it. I always do. :)
