Bulldog and Pug Plush Toys

Crochet Pattern
Materials

• Yarn HIMALAYA Dolphin Fine:

color #80506 cream (main), color #80508 black, color #80503 soft pink (for ears). For overalls and
flowers, use HIMALAYA Dolphin Fine in any shades.

• Yarn YarnArt Jeans, color #28 for embroidering fingers on hands and feet.

• Yarn Alize Cotton Gold Hobby, color #518 for the tongue, or any other similar alternatives.

• Hooks #3.5 and #2.

• Safety eyes 18 mm, trapezoid-shaped, with a sparkle.

• Safety nose, size 30x24 mm for the bulldog, or a smaller size, for example, 27x21 mm; nose for the
pug 24x18 mm.

• Needle with a large eye for sewing and shaping.

• Marker or contrasting thread.

• Stuffing, I use hollow fiber balls.

• Scissors.

• Moment Crystal glue.

• Black dry pastel and a brush for shading.

• Wire for reinforcing the arms, 1 mm in diameter (optional).

Abbreviations

• MR – magic ring.

• ch – chain.

• sc – single crochet.

• dec – decrease.

• inc – increase.

• hdc – half double crochet.

• dc – double crochet.

• sl st – slip stitch.

• (...) * n – repeat the instructions in parentheses n times.

Recommendations

All parts of the toy, except for the ears, are crocheted in a spiral starting with a magic ring. Rounds are not
joined unless specified in the pattern. The stitches should be tight to avoid holes and to ensure the stuffing
does not show through. If the stitches are too loose, try using a smaller hook.

Stuff each piece as you crochet, ensuring it is filled firmly to maintain the toy's shape.

If you use materials other than those specified, adjust the eye size during the crocheting process.

One skein of the main color is sufficient for the toy, provided you use the recommended materials and
crochet tightly rather than loosely.
Arms

Crochet using the main color.

• rnd1: 6 sc in MR. (6 sts)

• rnd2: inc in each st. (12 sts)

• rnd3: (1 sc, inc) 6 times. (18 sts)

• rnd4: (inc, 2 sc) 6 times. (24 sts)

• rnd5–rnd6: sc in each st around for 2 rounds. (24 sts per round)

Shaping the Finger

• rnd7: 11 sc, (yarn over + pull through) 5 times, yarn over and pull through all loops on the hook,
then 12 sc. (24 sts)

Arms (continued)

• rnd8: (dec, 2 sc) 6 times. (18 sts)

• rnd9: (4 sc, dec) 3 times. (15 sts)

 • rnd10: (4 sc, inc) 3 times. (18 sts)

• rnd11: (inc, 2 sc) 6 times. (24 sts)

• rnd12–rnd14: sc in each st around for 3 rounds. (24 sts per round)

Adding Slip Stitches for the Hand Bend

In the next three rounds, slip stitches are added at the bend of the arm, positioned directly above the
finger. You can pre-mark the 7 central stitches above the finger for accuracy.

• rnd15–rnd17: 8 sc, 7 sl st, 9 sc. (24 sts per round)

• rnd18–rnd21: sc in each st around for 4 rounds. (24 sts per round)

Finishing

• Work a slip stitch, cut the yarn, pull it to the wrong side, and secure it.

Optional: Adding Wire Frame

• If you are adding wire, prepare a piece approximately 20 cm long for each arm. Insert the wire
before closing the arm.
I used 1 mm diameter wire, cut into 40 cm pieces, folded each piece in half, and twisted them together.

The prepared wire pieces are wrapped with electrical tape or fabric plaster. However, only about ¾ of the
length is wrapped, leaving the remaining section unwrapped for now.

Next, place some stuffing into the palm of the hand. This acts as a cushion to prevent the wire from
pressing against the fabric or poking through.

Now, insert the wire into the arm. Stuff the piece with hollow fiber around the wire all the way to the top.

Your arms are now complete.

Legs + Body

Start with black yarn.

• rnd1: 8 sc in MR. (8 sts)

• rnd2: inc in each st. (16 sts)

Switch to cream yarn and begin shaping the pads on the paw using black yarn.

Creating the Pads

• rnd3: With cream yarn, (1 sc, inc) 2 times, (1 sc in cream, inc dc in black) 4 times (work the tops of
the black increases with cream yarn), (1 sc, inc) 2 times in cream. (24 sts)

Cut and secure the black yarn. Continue crocheting with cream yarn.

• rnd4: (3 sc, inc) 6 times. (30 sts)

• rnd5–rnd7: sc in each st around for 3 rounds. (30 sts per round)

• rnd8: 8 sc, 7 dec, 8 sc. (23 sts)

• rnd10–rnd12: sc in each st around for 3 rounds. (20 sts per round)

 • rnd13: 8 sc, 4 inc, 8 sc. (24 sts)

• rnd14–rnd15: sc in each st around for 2 rounds. (24 sts per round)

Finish the first leg with a slip stitch and cut the yarn. Crochet the second leg in the same way, but do not cut
the yarn as you will continue by joining the legs.

Adding Details
Before joining the legs, perform shaping on the paw pads and embroider the toes:

1. Ensure the legs are well-stuffed.

2. Use a needle and black yarn to create shaping and embroider the toes.

Joining the Legs

1. Identify the central stitches on both legs for joining.

o On the right leg (second leg): use the 10th stitch from the marker on the left.

o On the left leg (first leg): use the 9th stitch from the marker on the right.

2. Joining Round (rnd16):

o 10 sc on the right leg, ch 3, 24 sc on the left leg, 3 sc across the chain, 14 sc. (54 sts)
• rnd17: 10 sc, 3 inc, 24 sc, 3 inc, 14 sc. (60 sts)
(The increases are positioned on each side of the chain stitches.)

• rnd18–rnd23: sc in each st around for 6 rounds. (60 sts per round)

• rnd24: 4 sc, dec, (8 sc, dec) 5 times, 4 sc. (54 sts)

• rnd25: sc in each st around. (54 sts)

• rnd26: (dec, 7 sc) 6 times. (48 sts)

• rnd27: sc in each st around. (48 sts)

Shaping the Back

In the next round, decreases will be made on the back. Identify the 18 central stitches on the back
and mark them.

Body (continued)

• rnd28: 1 sc, (1 sc, dec) 6 times, 29 sc. (42 sts)

• rnd29: sc in each st around. (42 sts)

• rnd30: (dec, 5 sc) 6 times. (36 sts)

Start Stuffing the Body

Begin to gradually stuff the body as you crochet.

Attaching the Arms

Attach the arms so the fingers rest gently against the body, neither pointing straight forward nor
directly to the sides.

1. Identify the central stitches above the fingers of each arm. Mark 7 sc to the left and right of these
points.

2. On the body, locate 7 central stitches on each side, or find 11 central stitches on the chest and count
7 sc to each side for the arms.

3. Note that the placement may vary depending on the marker's position. For the right arm, stitches
may overlap into the next round; adjust the marker, if necessary, after attaching the arms.

• rnd31: 11 sc, crochet 7 sc together with the left arm, 11 sc across the chest, crochet 7 sc together
with the right arm. (36 sts)

• rnd32: 11 sc, 17 sc along the outer side of the left arm, 11 sc, 17 sc along the outer side of the right
arm. (56 sts)
 At this stage, twist the wires from both arms together and wrap them with electrical tape or fabric
plaster for reinforcement.

• rnd33: 18 sc, dec, 26 sc, dec, 8 sc. (54 sts)

• rnd34: (dec, 7 sc) 6 times. (48 sts)

• rnd35: 3 sc, dec, (6 sc, dec) 5 times, 3 sc. (42 sts)

• rnd36: (5 sc, dec) 6 times. (36 sts)

• rnd37: 2 sc, dec, (4 sc, dec) 5 times, 2 sc. (30 sts)

 • rnd38: (dec, 3 sc) 6 times. (24 sts)

• rnd39: sc in each st around. (24 sts)

Work the required number of stitches to align with the center of the left shoulder. For me, it was 7 sc,
followed by 1 sl st.

Cut the yarn, pull it to the wrong side, and secure it.

Stuffing the Body

Stuff the body, paying particular attention to the shoulders and neck. Ensure the shoulders are evenly filled
and round. Use a needle or thin hook to adjust and evenly distribute the stuffing.

Tail

Using the main color:

1. Chain 11.

2. Work in reverse along the chain: (inc, 1 sc) 5 times.

Cut the yarn, leaving a small tail for sewing.

Attaching the Tail
Sew the tail between rounds 24 and 25.

Final Round (in cream)

• rnd25: (3 sc, dec) 6 times. (24 sts)

Work a slip stitch, cut the yarn, pull it to the wrong side, and secure it.

Muzzle

Crochet with cream yarn.

• rnd1: 6 sc in MR. (6 sts)

• rnd2: inc in each st. (12 sts)

• rnd3: (3 sc, inc) 3 times. (15 sts)

• rnd4–rnd8: sc in each st around for 5 rounds. (15 sts per round)

• rnd9: (dec, 3 sc) 3 times. (12 sts)

• rnd10–rnd11: sc in each st around for 2 rounds. (12 sts per round)

• rnd12–rnd14: 4 sc, 4 sl st, 4 sc. (12 sts per round)

After round 14, make 1 slip stitch for alignment. Ensure the slip stitches are aligned directly above one
another.

• rnd15–rnd18: 4 sc, 4 sl st, 4 sc. (12 sts per round)

• rnd19–rnd20: sc in each st around for 2 rounds. (12 sts per round)

• rnd21: (3 sc, inc) 3 times. (15 sts)

• rnd22–rnd26: sc in each st around for 5 rounds. (15 sts per round)

• rnd27: (dec, 3 sc) 3 times. (12 sts)

• rnd28: dec 6 times. (6 sts)

Finishing
Cut the yarn, leaving a small tail. Use a needle to pull the yarn through the front loops of the remaining
stitches and tighten to close the opening. Since this is plush yarn, tighten each stitch individually. Secure the
yarn and hide it inside the piece.
Now we need to attach the nose to the muzzle.

1. Find the central point for the nose and insert it through both layers of the muzzle.

2. Before securing the washer, apply a small layer of Moment Crystal glue to the base of the nose on
the inside.

3. Press the nose firmly against the muzzle to ensure proper adhesion.

4. Once the glue has dried, secure the washer on the nose.

To prevent the nose’s stem from pressing into the head during attachment, slightly melt the stem with a
lighter and flatten it.

Lower Part of the Muzzle

Crochet with cream yarn.

• rnd1: 6 sc in MR. (6 sts)

• rnd2: inc in each st. (12 sts)

 • rnd3: sc in each st around. (12 sts)

• rnd4: (dec, 2 sc) 3 times. (9 sts)

• rnd5: (1 sc, dec) 3 times. (6 sts)

Finishing
Cut the yarn, leaving a small tail. Use a needle to pull the yarn through the front loops of the remaining
stitches and tighten to close the opening. Secure the yarn and hide it inside the piece.

Tongue

Crochet with pink yarn (e.g., Alize Cotton Gold Hobby) using a 2 mm hook.

• rnd1: Ch 4, starting from the 2nd chain from the hook: inc, 1 sc, 4 sc in the last chain. Continue
along the other side of the chain: 1 sc, inc. (10 sts)

• rnd2: 2 inc, 1 sc, 4 inc, 1 sc, 2 inc. (18 sts)

Work a slip stitch, cut the yarn, and leave a tail for sewing.
Ears

The ears are crocheted in rows. For each ear, make two identical pieces in different colors:

• Right ear: one piece in pink and one in black.

• Left ear: one piece in cream and one in pink.

Right Ear (Pink and Black)

First, crochet the pink piece, then repeat for the black piece.

• rnd1: Ch 2, 2 sc in the 2nd chain from the hook, ch 1, turn.

• rnd2: 2 inc. (4 sc), ch 1, turn.

• rnd3: (inc, 1 sc) 2 times. (6 sc), ch 1, turn.

• rnd4: 3 sc, inc, 1 sc, inc. (8 sc), ch 1, turn.

• rnd5: inc, 7 sc. (9 sc), ch 1, turn.

• rnd6: 9 sc, ch 1, turn.

• rnd7: inc, 8 sc. (10 sc), ch 1, turn.

• rnd8: 8 sc, dec. (9 sc), ch 1, turn.

Incomplete Rows

• rnd9: inc, 3 sc. (5 sc), ch 1, turn.

• rnd10: Skip 1 sc, 3 sc from the 2nd stitch, inc. (5 sc), ch 1, turn.

• rnd11: inc, 4 sc. (6 sc), ch 1, turn.

• rnd12: Skip 1 sc, 5 sc from the 2nd stitch, ch 2, turn.

• rnd13: Skip 1 sc, from the 2nd stitch: 1 hdc, 1 sc, dec.

Without turning, crochet 10 sc along the lower edge of the ear to the opposite side.

Cut the yarn and secure it.

Repeat for the second color to complete the ear.

Right Ear (Black and Pink)

Crochet the black piece using the same instructions as the pink piece. Do not cut the yarn after finishing the
black piece.

Place the pink piece on top of the black piece, aligning the edges. Work a border around the ear,
crocheting through both layers along the edges.

Left Ear (Cream and Pink)

Crochet the cream and pink pieces using the same instructions. Cut the yarn at the end of both pieces.

To assemble, turn the two pieces so that their correct sides face outwards, and begin the border from the
opposite side. Work the edging through both layers.

This completes the ears.

Head Assembly
First, sew on the muzzle. Use pins to secure it to the head. The upper edge of the muzzle is sewn between
rounds 12 and 13.
Now we will do slight eye shaping. The shaping is done separately for each eye using two threads.

(Tie the threads and simultaneously tighten them. Make a couple more secure knots. Hide the ends inside
the head and trim any excess.

The shaping for the second eye is done in the same way.)
After shaping, sew on the ears.

Next, embroider the eyebrows and eyelids. On the cream part of the head, embroider them with black
thread; on the black part of the head, embroider them with cream thread.

Finally, sew on the tongue and the lower part of the muzzle.

When the head is fully assembled and ready, you can sew it to the body. For convenience, you can secure
the head with a knitting needle.

Sew using a thin thread matching the toy's color.

Embroider the fingers on the hands.

Overalls

The overalls are crocheted with Himalaya Dolphin Fine, just like the toy. Choose any color yarn you prefer.
Begin with the pant legs.

• rnd1: Chain 36 and join into a circle with a slip stitch. Ensure the chain is not twisted. Work 36 sc in
the round. Finish with a slip stitch.

Cut the yarn and secure it.

For the second pant leg, crochet the same way, but do not cut the yarn after completing it. Proceed to join
the legs.

• rnd2: Join to the first pant leg and crochet 36 sc around it, then 36 sc around the second leg. (72 sts)

Crochet the necessary number of rows up to the tail. For me, it is 9 rows. For you, the number of rows may
differ; you need to try the pants on the toy.

rnd3–rnd11: 9 rows of 72 sc.

In the next row, we will crochet a hole for the tail. The number of stitches before the hole may also differ
from mine; try it on your toy.

rnd12: 34 sc, ch 4, skip 4 stitches, and continue crocheting from the 5th stitch – 34 sc = 72 sc.
rnd13: 34 sc, 4 sc along the chain, 34 sc = 72 sc.
rnd14: (dec, 10 sc) 6 times = 66 sc.
rnd15: 66 sc.

Next, find the 12 central stitches on the front of the overalls. For me, it’s 5 sc on the left and 7 sc on the
right of the marker. These 12 stitches will form the bib, which we will now crochet in rows.
rnd1: 5 sc, ch 1, turn.
rnd2–rnd6: 12 sc, ch 1, turn.
rnd7: Skip 1 sc, starting from the 2nd stitch: 9 sc, dec, ch 1.

Without turning, continue crocheting along the side edge of the bib: 6 sc. Then, along the top of the pants,
crochet the required number of stitches to reach the first strap. For me, it was 22 sc.

Chain 28 + 5 ch for the buttonhole. The number of additional chains depends on the size of the buttons you
will sew onto the overalls.

Skip 5 ch, and crochet 28 hdc in the opposite direction. Attach to the pants with a decrease. Then, crochet
the required number of stitches to reach the next strap. For me, it was 7 sc.

Again, chain 28 + 5 ch, and in the opposite direction, crochet 28 hdc, skipping the first 5 ch. Attach to the
pants with a decrease. Then, crochet along the top of the pants the required number of stitches to reach
the bib.

Finish with a slip stitch, cut the yarn, secure it, and hide it on the wrong side of the stitches.
Flowers

We will need three flowers for the headband and one additional flower for the overalls if desired.

• rnd1: Make a magic ring. Work 10 sc into the ring, crocheting through 2 loops as you’re using plush
yarn. Slightly tighten the ring and close it with a slip stitch into the first sc.

• rnd2 (Petals):

o Chain 2. In the same stitch where the slip stitch was made, do the following:

▪ Yarn over, pull through to match the height of the chain (first loop).

▪ Yarn over, pull through again (second loop).

▪ Yarn over, pull through a third time (third loop).

o In the next stitch, repeat the same process:

▪ Yarn over, pull through (first loop).

▪ Yarn over, pull through (second loop).

▪ Yarn over, pull through (third loop).

o Yarn over and pull through all loops on the hook.

o Chain 2, and make a slip stitch into the next stitch. This completes the first petal.

• Repeat the process for each petal, using 2 stitches per petal, until you have a total of 5 petals.

Finishing
Leave a longer tail if you plan to sew the flower. Pull the tail to the wrong side of the flower and tie the
ends into a couple of secure knots. Attach the flower by sewing only at the center.

These flowers will be used to decorate the head and overalls.

Pug

The pug is crocheted using the same pattern as the bulldog, with minor changes to the muzzle and different
ears.

I crochet the pug using beige yarn, color #80522. One skein is enough, and I even had 20 grams left. The
muzzle and ears are crocheted in black.

The head is crocheted in a single color, so for convenience, I will provide the pattern for the head without
color changes.

Cut the yarn, leaving a small tail. Use a needle to pull the yarn through the front loops of the remaining
stitches and tighten to close the opening. Pull each stitch tight individually due to the plush yarn texture.

Attach the nose to the muzzle the same way as for the bulldog. Don't forget to melt and flatten the stem of
the nose so it doesn't press against the head.

Lower Part of the Muzzle

 “After the last row, without turning the piece, edge the ear along two sides.

At the top of the ear, make 2 single crochets in one stitch.

Also, crochet the yarn tail into the work.”

At the end, make a slip stitch and cut the yarn. If you are sewing the ears with the same yarn, leave
a longer tail.

Head Assembly
As with the bulldog, begin assembling the head by sewing on the muzzle. Then perform the eye
sculpting. After that, sew on the tongue and the lower part of the muzzle. Finally, attach the ears.

Attaching the Head

Once the head is assembled, it can be sewn to the body. For convenience, secure it with a long knitting
needle and sew it evenly. Near the end of the sewing process, stuff the neck. Sew the tail between rounds
24 and 25.
Shading
For shading, you will need black dry pastel and a small synthetic brush. Apply the shading around the eyes,
slightly above the muzzle, and under the eyebrows. Use a small amount of pastel at a time to avoid
damaging the toy. You can also shade the legs and arms to highlight the fingers.

Eye Details
Only after shading, proceed to decorate the eyes. The whites of the eyes are embroidered using the milky
Himalaya Dolphin Fine yarn left over from the bulldog. The arrows and eyelids are made with the same yarn
in black.
Pocket for Overalls

Work in turning rows:

• Row 1: 6 sc in MR, ch 1, turn.

• Row 2: (1 sc, inc) 3 times. (9 sts), ch 1, turn.

• Row 3: (2 sc, inc) 3 times. (12 sts), ch 1, turn.

• Row 4: (3 sc, inc) 3 times. (15 sts), ch 1, turn.

• Row 5: 2 sc, inc, (4 sc, inc) 2 times, 2 sc. (18 sts), ch 1, turn.

• Row 6: (inc, 5 sc) 3 times. (21 sts), ch 1.

Without turning the piece, work an edge along the straight side of the pocket. Tuck in the yarn tail as you
work.

"Make an edging for the pocket along the top, incorporating the yarn tail into the work."

At the end, cut the yarn and pull it to the wrong side. Secure the yarn and hide it inside the stitches,
trimming the excess.
The finished pocket is sewn onto the overalls. Sew using the back loops of the stitches with a thin yarn of
the same color.
That's it, the toys are ready—congratulations!
