Franklin, the clever little French Bulldog, loves to sing and practices most of the day - making some very interesting noises... he is very loyal to his human and loves to spend his evenings lap-warming (whilst snoring over the telly).

The pattern is clear to follow with detailed instructions and lots of pictures for step by step making and assembly. There are also picture instructions for colour change, back loop only, front post stitch and invisible finish.

I've made Franklin using Aran/worsted weight yarn and a 4mm (G) crochet hook. He sits 9 inches tall.

The following stitches/techniques are used in this pattern: slip stitch, magic ring, single crochet, half double crochet, double crochet, increase, decrease (sc2tog), colour change, back loop only, front post stitch, invisible finish

(This pattern is for personal use only, not to be resold or rewritten in any way. I am happy for you to sell the finished toy, but please credit the design to me.)
