Paula Puppy Reviewed by Deidre A. Wright on 2011-08-10 *****
My first amigurumi. I think it is so cute. The pattern was easy to follow and easy to personalize with the color choices. For the "sweater" I used some VC from my stash. I couldn't find the safety eyes in the local craft stores so I used buttons.
