I’m still working in rounds but I am alternating between the two yarns so that I have different colors for the front and back of my beagle. Also I haven’t cut off the the yarn after the color change in each round, I’ve just let it stay inside the body of the dog.

Now join the arms and legs to the body. And for the tail I would suggest, do your thing my friend. (I haven’t written down what I did with its tail and I’m sure you can work it out).
It’s photo time now,
His mug shots:
Haha! Look at him feeling ticklish, I would hate to part ways with him but I’m happy to be sending it to my friend.
Also, I feel like his tummy looks a bit bigger, if you want to modify you better make changer to this guy.
The pattern for the arms skips from round 10 to round 14. What happened to rounds 11 through 13?
Pattern for body is missing round 24 to 27. Legs is missing round 8-9, 15-18, and arms is missing rounds11-13, 15-20. Help!
guess we gotta wing the missing rounds?
I think she means that you continue the SC for those rounds. I did my thing for this guy. First animal I’ve made with limbs. Dang, attaching limbs is tough. I love him though. Currently trying to work out the tail.
