Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great pattern. Found an error Great pattern. There is an error in the leg. Round 6 should read (1dec, 2dc) 3 times, 6dc, 15sts. Thanks

Rated 1 out of 5 by from Nothing like the picture The pattern ended up creating a giant version of the photos. For an experienced crocheter it was extremely disheartening to see it come to life. Finished dimensions would be helpful because when expecting it to fit in one hand, it is certainly does not. It is a question whether the nose in particular should have been half stitches not full. There are multiple parts like this. The pictures need to be more informative and instructive for future designs, which we would be unlikely to attempt after this one.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Very cute and easy to use pattern! I recently created this corgi using Ricorumi DK and it has come out beautifully. This pattern was really easy to follow and broken down in to sizeable chunks so you don't have to complete the full project as one. The crown is my particular favourite, I might start putting crowns on all my makes!

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Lovely Corgi for Jubilee Really enjoyed this pattern. Thank you to the commenter who provided the correction for the mistake in the part for the leg as there was an error there. Also missing from the equipment list is the stuffing - don’t forget it! I managed to make 3 corgis out of the equipment I ordered directly from the recommended equipment list and 1 pack of safety eyes is enough for 3 corgis too so great value for money.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Lovely pattern Really enjoyed making this little Corgi! As mentioned previously there is a mistake in the foot increases but it worked out fine, my kids love the finished Corgi!

Rated 3 out of 5 by from Cute pattern not for beginners Not a bad pattern but the making up instructions are vague, where do i attach the tail? Whats the position for the ears? There is a marker on the picture but its not explained anywhere. Very frustrating

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Finished just in time! Made this for a friend & just managed to complete it for the Jubilee. Though ran out of time to add the gold to the cape. Super cute! I struggled a bit putting it together, I'd like to have seen what the tail looked like in position & how & where to sew the legs on. I'm really pleased with the finished effect though & my friend loved it.

Rated 2 out of 5 by from Pattern is wrong in the body I've made the legs, head, all parts but now I'm on the body and the pattern is wrong! Count the stitch decreases from rnd 18 and you'll see they don't add up
