"Fake sweater" – looks tailored but easy to make.

Eyes: Use plastic eyes or embroidery (both methods shown).

Intermediate-friendly – skills required: basic crocheting skills for amigurumi (crocheting in spiral, magic ring, chain, slip stitch, single crochet stitch, increasing and decreasing, changing colors), basic sewing skills.

The pattern (pdf file) is in English (US terms), step-by-step instructions and tips with lots of photos for each step (doesn't contain lessons on crocheting).

Finished size ~14 cm, I used a yarn of ~160 m = 50 g and a 2,5 mm hook (or a bigger dog ~18 cm, a yarn of 100 m = 50 g and a 3,5 mm hook)

In the photos, you can see dogs crocheted according to this pattern in two different sizes and with two eye options.
