Snoopy Inspired Crochet Applique

My newest Crochet Pocket Pillow is designed after the book “The Legend of the Great Pumpkin” which is a Fall classic! The finished pillow will be 14×14 inches and on the front it will feature my Pumpkin Granny Square and the back will have an adorable little Snoopy applique peaking out of the pocket. I will make a follow-up post when the pillow is finished but first I wanted to get you the pattern for Snoopy 🙂

Materials:
– Red Heart Super Saver Yarn in colors White and Black
– Size H Crochet Hook
– Safety Eyes
– Safety Nose
– Tapestry Needle
