Fifi the Poodle

Hello, everyone!

The project I've been working on non stop has been Fifi the Poodle! She is
the Pomp-a-Poodle pattern found on www.coatsandclark.com. I completed her in just two days! To my surprise, she is 13 inches tall! This is my first project working with Red Heart's Pomp-a-Doodle yarn. It is irresistibly fluffy and soft to the touch. One of my favorite features on Fifi is her blushed cheeks. It adds character and that dash of sweetness! I am also fond of her bow. It completes that French-puppy look and is so adorable!

The pattern stated that the difficulty level was intermediate. To me, it didn't really seem that way. However, it was time-consuming and required an awful lot of patience (a characteristic that I seem to lack), but it was worth it and it was so fun! The pattern also didn't require much sewing of body parts, so that was great! So for all you beginner crocheters out there, I believe you can take this project on! Blessings to you all and have fun with this!

  1. OH my goodness!! SHe is adorable! Was the pomp-a-doodle hard to work with? I've seen a lot of fun projects using that yarn... but it scares me!

    Love seeing the things you create!

  2. Thank you so much! The Pomp-a-Doodle yarn may be intimidating, but it's actually quite simple once you get used to it. In the Crochet Today! November/December 2010 issue, there's a guide on how to use pom pom yarn on page 11. It really helped me with the project! Xoxo
