Butters Cup Cozy

This was a custom order for a cup cozy to look like Butters the ChiWeenie. I was pleased with the result as was my customer.

I used cotton yarn in colorway Jute. I ordered the eyes and nose on Etsy. The eyes are safety eyes so I had to cut off the posts that stuck out in back after they had been secured with the washers. I used a .010" black monofilament for the whiskers and shortened the ears from the pattern to look more like Butters then added a pink bandanna.
