Yesterday I posted that I had made a series of dachshund-related gifts for my friends including this miniature crocheted dachshund. I also knitted some adorable dachshund koozies.
Disclaimer: Feel free to make this pattern for your personal use, for your platypus, for charity, or to sell. The only thing I ask is that you please do not sell it on Etsy. If you are interested in purchasing a koozie from my Etsy store, you may do so here.
