Pattern Description:

Hello! My name is Puf.

If you're thinking about getting a pet, you may be want to try and crochet one first.

I'm a little doggy only a few months old but I already learned how to roll over, play dead and fetch pollen-balls.

I know you like my innocent pretty face and sweet big eyes. If you take me home I hope you don't mind if I become a little bit naughty and will make a mess in your bedroom. It is my favorite game ;-)

I am a joy and quick to make whether it's for you or a cute gift for family and friends!

Please don't let me wait for long, grab your favorite yarn and hook and let the fun begin!
