Materials
Yarn in the colors: dark brown/light brown/grey or any other color you want your Frenchie to be
Yarn strength: DK, light worsted, number 3 yarn (-> i used Milk Cotton Yarn)
Sewing pins -> i recommend getting a bunch of sewing pins, because they tend to get lost or bend a little bit
Stitch markers -> i use these (use a stitch marker in the last stitch of each round, moving it up as you go)
Safety eyes: size 18 with a brown edge
Hook: 2,5 mm -> my go to and absolute favourite crochet hooks are these Japanese Tulip Etimo Rose crochet hooks. I use them all the time!
Black embroidery floss for mouth
Black embroidery floss for mouth
Yarn Needle, Embroidery Needle -> i recommend get them in several sizes, with a blunt tip (so you don't split the yarn). You will need them very often in amigurumi: the bigger ones for sewing your pieces together and the smaller ones are perfect for embroidery or sewing smaller pieces.
Scissors or cutter -> if you prefer scissors i can really recommend these beautiful high-quality, vintage scissors
OR: If you prefer a cutter - like me - i really recommend this quick to grab yarn cutter
By the way - check out this super practical yarn bowl!
I just got one and it's amazing, it's heavy enough to not move when i pull on the yarn and no more chasing of yarn that's rolling around in my flat.
Height of finished dog: approx. 12 cm
The head, body, ears, snout, snout fold and tail are worked in continuous spiral rounds, without closing off the round with a slst.
The legs are crocheted in rows and in the round. All the parts are crocheted separately and then sewn together.
Feel free to use the yarn and matching crochet hook of your choice to make Francis. The result will be bigger or smaller keeping the same proportions.

Oh Fall - you are the cosiest time of the year!
You smell like wet leaves on the ground.
You feel like long walks on Sundays.
You look like red, yellow and orange trees glowing in the sun.
You taste like hot chocolate and pumpkin pie.
You are soft like thick socks and warm blankets on the couch
You call for watching all Seasons of Gilmore Girls again.
