Jake the Dog Amigurumi

This is my first amigurumi pattern. I'm crocheting for many years but I called myself a late bloomer because for that many years of being a crocheter I didn't had any interest on Amigurumi not until last week. The storm cause me to try to make some amigurumi just to treat me from being bored.

Puffilicious Bangles

This is only an experiment that turned into cute accessories. I was thinking about what should I do with my left-over yarns and here is my Bangles with the crochet puff stitch that is why I called it Puffilicious Bangles.

It has a detailed instructions inside with pictures.

Level: easy
Materials
Yarns ( I used left-over yarns from my previous projects)
Size G crochet hook
Scissors

Symbols: 
C- chain
SC- single crochet
YO- yarn over


Bangles:
STEP 1: C 35 and join in round

 STEP 2: SC on each chain

STEP 3: Work on Puff stitch 

Yarn over, insert the hook in specified stitch, yarn over again and draw a loop through (three loops on hook).

After you finish a one puff stitch work the next puff stitch on a next stitch. Slip one stitch for you to have a space.

STEP 4: SC1x SC2x on each stitches between two puff stitches for one round

And now you finish. Enjoy your fashionable bangles from your left-over yarns.

You can create as many as you can and I am allowing everyone to sell products out of this pattern as long as you mention where the pattern came from.
