Hi Henry.

I have a crochet pattern for a stuffed lab.  I'm sure I sent it to you a
while back.

Hi Tracy, I wonder if this book is also on Bard. I also wonder if there is a
pattern for horses, Eagles or Black Labs or dogs in general.s

I got a crochet book from Bookshare last night that looks like fun.  It's
called 3-D Animal Granny Squares, by Catie Moore.

It has charts, but all the patterns are written out.  

I looked at a couple.  

For the sheep, you make the square with a lot of popcorns, embroider on the
eyes and nose, then pick up stitches to make ears, then make 2 legs and sew
them on.  

For the pig, you make the square, embroider on the eyes, pick up some loops
to create the ears, then crochet the snout and sew it on.  

So the squares really are 3-D.

It talks about putting the squares together to make a blanket, which would
be interesting, or I bet they'd make cute pillows or whatever.

Tracy
