DOGGHAN CAL – WEEK #16 Bird Bowl
DOGGHAN CAL – WEEK #16: Bird Bowl German Shepherd
German Shepherd’s, the breed probably best known as the K9 police dogs.
This one was just relaxing in the sun, when that pesky bird decided to use his water bowl as a bird bath. The nerve!
While this Dogghan CAL posts will always be here for free on my blog, for convenience, I’ve also created one giant PDF file for those who would like to purchase a copy of all the files together in one place. No searching through posts necessary. Plus, it’s over there now, should you want to work ahead of the group rather than wait for each week’s new square. You can purchase this pattern for a small fee here on Ravelry. It is also available on Etsy.
Make sure to post your finished squares/rectangles on social media:

I hope if you’re new to C2C crochet, that watching the YouTube videos for the first two squares, and working alongside me, have helped you get this fun technique down pat!

Was there a week 15? Just wanted to be sure I’m not missing one of your wonderful dogs!
JHWinter
Hi, Pat! Yes! Week #15 was the Firedog 🙂 aka the Dalmatian!
Louise A Rameau
I’m sorry but I’m being asked to sign up once again. It once again says I can’t be verified. I’m sure it’s because your blog is not secure. This happens every week unfortunately
JHWinter
The blog will be secure by next week. I apologize for the inconvenience and have sent you the PDF for this week in the interim. 😀
Helena
Hi Pat!
Thanks for the question and thank you Julianne for the link! I’m just now doing this for my daughter and noticed I couldn’t find Firedog! Found him at the link you provided though, so all good. I love this afghan
JHWinter
I love to hear that you are enjoying working your way through the graphghan! I hope you’ll post a pic when you’re finished and tag me @jhwinterauthor!
