My dog is black. Will the doll go muddy?

Dark coats need a photo with a little light on the eyes and chest. Otherwise the stitches collapse into one brown mass. Try a brighter shot.

Can I include the owner?

Yes, if you want a person-and-dog doll. Crop so both faces are large.

Is the example my result?

No. Examples are stand-in pairs. The button generates from the file you upload.

Crochet dog portrait

A crochet dog portrait works when the ears and coat are obvious. Floppy ears, a white blaze, or a spotted chest give the model something to keep. A photo of the dog looking at the camera beats a running shot.

The sample pair on this page is a golden retriever and a yarn version of that kind of dog. Your upload replaces the sample. The generator below uses your file, not the example.
