Default One of you will have an idea

I have a little Lizzie Kate kit of a dog in a Santa hat I'm making up for
DD. It includes a pompon for the top of the hat, but I really don't want to
use it.

I have a reasonable range of fuzzy flosses I can get my hands one. Thoughts
about a different approach or a stitch to use. While I'm currently working
in hand, I can put it in a hoop easily enough.

Thanks

Cherl

Turkey work....then cut the loops. I've done that before on an ornament,
and works like a charm with plain floss, so I imagine it'll be really
cool with a fuzzy floss.

Ah, Sue. Great minds think alike. You were just faster.

Definitely turkey work. I'll just comment that it's always fun the
first time you deliberately cut your stitching.
