Duchess the Poodle

I love Duchess the little Poodle Pup, she is such an adorable character. Duchess is made up of both crocheting and knitting techniques and stands approx 30cm. A simply pattern with a fabulous result. Her little gingham bow brings an extra touch of girly-ness to this already pretty puppy. This would make an ideal door stop also.
