French Bulldog Wall Hanging – A Tapestry Crochet Pattern for Dog Lovers

Crocheted French Bulldog wall hanging displayed against a white wall. The design features a beige and white Frenchie with a pink tongue on a turquoise background, finished with blue tassels and mounted on a wooden dowel with a matching hanging string.

If you’re a fan of tapestry crochet and love French Bulldogs, this wall hanging pattern might be your next favorite project. Designed to be both eye-catching and beginner-friendly, this pattern captures the charm of the Frenchie’s expressive face, big ears, and playful personality—stitched row by row in soft yarn.

What You’ll Need

You’ll need your usual amigurumi suspects:

Stitches and Abbreviations:

  • ch = chain
  • sc = single crochet
  • st(s) = stitch(es)
  • R: row

Pattern notes:

Skill level: Intermediate

Sizing: Using the mentioned materials the wall hanging measures approx. 13 inches (33 cm) in width and 14 inches (37 cm) in total height (from the branch to the end of the tassels).

Surrounding the piece are balls of yarn in white, pink, and turquoise, a yellow crochet hook, embroidery scissors, and a tapestry needle.

HOW TO CHANGE COLOR WHEN YOU'RE CROCHETING ON THE WRONG SIDE:

To make sure that the color change is invisible when you're crocheting on the wrong side of the work (aka every row with an odd number), you must change the color this way:

Take the "old" thread with your left hand and move it forward (between the "new"

thread and the loop). Hold it steady with your left thumb as you change color.

Then, wrap the new thread around the hook, and pull it through the loops.

Follow the Chart or the Written Instructions – Your Choice

If you prefer working visually, the pattern also includes a full-color chart that you can follow row by row. It’s a helpful way to see how the image comes together, especially if you’re more familiar with colorwork or like tracking your progress visually.

You can choose to follow either the written instructions or the crochet chart, so you can use the method that works best for you.

Just scroll through the chart below or print it out to keep on hand while you crochet:

Do the same for every tassel, leaving an even space between each one. (pic.3)
