Corgi and Shih Tzu Poo Hat
If you’re a dog lover, especially of the smaller breeds, this delightful hat pattern is perfect for you! As a dedicated volunteer at a dog rescue, I created this charming design featuring two beloved small dogs: the playful Corgi, often referred to as the Queen’s Dog due to its popularity among royalty, and the adorable Shih Tzu, which is also commonly found in a mix known as the Shih Poo (a Poodle/Shih Tzu combination). With their short legs, big ears, and loving hearts, these little pups bring endless joy. I like to call them Mop Dogs for their fluffy appearances—always cheerful and great for cuddling!
This versatile knitting pattern allows you to personalize either dog, making it a unique piece that reflects your own pup’s characteristics! After knitting, you can add delightful duplicate stitching in a variety of colors—golds, blacks, greys, or browns—ensuring it’s truly YOUR creation. A few extra duplicate stitches can enhance your hat even further by adding details such as the nose, eyes, tongue, and ears, bringing your floppy-eared friend to life!
Available in five sizes ranging from Preemie to Large Adult, this hat is designed to be fun and functional, making it an excellent gift for a special baby or anyone who shares a passion for our canine companions! Please note that smaller sizes may not display the dogs’ legs in the knit pattern, but the charm remains captivating nonetheless. Perfect for cool weather, this hat will keep you and your loved ones cozy while celebrating the joy of man’s best friend.
