Monty the Corgi

Monty the Royal Corgi is the epitome of canine elegance, adorned with a charming knitted crown and resting on his luxurious tasselled cushion. A true regal delight, this delightful pattern is meticulously designed by Amanda Berry @fluffandfuzz, making it a must-have for any knitting enthusiast. These exquisite creations are knitted in high-quality acrylic DK yarns, using single pointed needles (note: this pattern does not require knitting in the round). Monty's adorable face is brought to life using the intarsia color-work technique, ensuring that every detail of this royal pup stands out. The accompanying cushion features playful yarn tassels, perfectly complementing Monty's noble demeanor. Notably, the arches of Monty’s crown are crafted using single crochet chains, adding an extra touch of sophistication. The pattern cleverly incorporates short row shaping, which enhances the overall design and gives Monty a unique profile. This knitting pattern is ideal for confident beginners and above, offering a fulfilling challenge. Along with intarsia, the techniques included are casting on and off, the essentials of knits and purls, increases and decreases, and the important skill of seaming to finish your project beautifully. Embrace your knitting journey and create your own regal Monty the Corgi, a delightful addition to your collection of handmade toys and gifts. This charming pattern promises to be a favorite, showcasing your crafting skills while delighting everyone who meets this wonderfully knitted royal companion.
