Poppet the Poodle - Vintage Knitting Pattern
White wool is the nicest choice for Poppet’s coat, though grey or chocolate or black are other good poodle shades. Whichever you choose, have bow and collar in brilliant contrast, for poodles are highly fashionable dogs and very fussy about le tout ensemble. Our Poppet wore magenta pink accessories when she sat for her picture on this page. They were made from a scrappet of felt, which is an excellent material to use as it comes in such bright, clear colours. If you use ribbon instead choose one that is fairly stiff, so that it will set nicely for the collar.

The finished dog measures about 10 inches high and is knitted with double wool throughout. The stitches are easy … stocking stitch, as you know, is just one row plain and one row purl, alternately; for the loop-stitch the needle is put into a stitch as for knitting, then the double wool is passed over right-hand needle and first finger of left hand three times, then over right-hand needle again, and all loops drawn through.
