Monty is a royal Corgi, with a knitted crown and tasselled cushion … a regal delight! Designed by Amanda Berry @fluffandfuzz, these are knitted in acrylic DK yarns on single pointed needles (not in the round). The corgi uses intarsia colour-work to make the head, and the cushion is decorated with yarn tassels. The arches in the crown are single crochet chains, and the pattern also incorporates some short row shaping.
