Wiener Dog

Discover this adorable and engaging pattern that kids will absolutely adore! If you’re a fan of this specific dog breed, you won't be able to resist creating this delightful loom-knitting project. This pattern is designed to be used with the Cindwood 36-peg loom, featuring a 3/8" gauge, and is paired perfectly with worsted weight yarn. The unique design of this animal is achieved through a combination of e-wrap (EW) and knit (K) stitches, ensuring not only tight, neat stitching but also keeping the finished animal larger and more huggable for little ones.

This intermediate-level pattern consists of three main parts: the head, body, and tail, and requires minimal sewing when assembling the final product. To create this charming animal, you'll need supplies such as safety eyes and a nose, polyfill stuffing, about 150 yards of your favorite worsted yarn, and a crafter's needle. The beauty of this pattern is its versatility; it can be made on any 36-peg loom, but feel free to adjust the yarn size or gauge based on your preferences.
