Notes
Super-long dachshund with a blue/white striped sweater. Yarn: Xuefeier Mengwawa No.2 (01 white, 29 red — poster's colorway uses red/white stripes, 66 light coffee), 2.0mm hook. In this author's shorthand t=dc, f=hdc, e=sl st. Original chart by @一只普通的丸子. Tip from the caption: you can skip the separate snout patch by changing color while crocheting the head.
Frequently asked questions
How long is the body?
48 rounds of a 9-st tube — the sweater section alternates 2 rounds of each color from Rnd 13 to Rnd 40.
Can I skip sewing the snout patch?
Yes — the poster suggests changing to the snout color while crocheting the head instead of sewing a separate patch.
