This Tiny Christmas Pug is an adorable way to celebrate your furry friend on the tree. Our dogs are truly part of the family, so why not include them in your holiday decorating?
With its sweet little face and festive details, it’s sure to bring joy to every dog lover who sees it. Best of all, it works up quickly with just a few yards of yarn. Perfect for using up scraps from your stash.
This pattern is easy enough for confident beginners, using simple stitches and small pieces that come together to form the pug’s body, ears, and snout.

The design is worked in rounds, with minimal shaping and assembly, making it approachable even if you’ve never made an ornament before. Add a festive scarf, tiny Santa hat, or a loop for hanging, and your little pug will be ready for the holidays in no time.
You’ll need small amounts of worsted-weight yarn in tan, brown, and black for the pug, plus a pop of color (like red or green) for holiday accents.
A Cute Pug Amigurumi Ornament
A size G/4.0 mm crochet hook works well for this project, along with a tapestry needle for finishing. A bit of stuffing will give the ornament its shape, and safety eyes or embroidered eyes complete the face. The finished ornament measures only a few inches tall, making it just the right size to hang on your Christmas tree.
This Tiny Christmas Pug makes a delightful handmade ornament for your own tree or as a thoughtful gift for fellow dog lovers.
You can whip up several in different colors to match the dogs in your life, or even make a whole pack for your holiday décor. Pick up your yarn scraps, grab your hook, and crochet a Christmas pug that’s as festive as it is adorable.
