Wrigley!

I wish black yarn photographed better!
This is a mini replica of a real dog called Wrigley who is a rather fine back spaniel.  He's been rather a long time in the making as my list of commissioned work reached silly proportions this year.

He's knitted in boucle yarn with soft eyelash yarn used for the ears and the 'feathers' on his legs and belly.  His legs are fully jointed and he has a leather collar.

The colour scheme for his coat and bed was chosen by the owner - I must admit I rather like it, particularly the way the check coat has turned out.  Mittens in that combination might be rather nice...

He'll be off to his new home very soon!
