Border Collie C2C Crochet Pattern & Free Graph
Surprise a dog lover with this Border Collie design
You would love this Border Collie design if you’re a dog lover and especially own the same breed featured in this pattern.
Many people are fond of Border Collies for a number of reasons. Firstly, they are incredibly intelligent, learning new tricks quickly and making training much easier.
They are also very playful and enjoy interactive games and activities with their owners. May it be a tug-of-war, fetch, or puzzle toy—these canine companions are always up for any fun activity there is.
And because of these endearing qualities, I can’t help but make a crochet dog design with Border Collie as my inspiration.
This crochet Border Collie pattern calls for a black-and-white yarn color combination to depict the distinctive coat of the playful dog. However, as they come in a variety of coat patterns and colors, you can use a different color palette that will better portray your or your recipient’s Border Collie.
There is also a touch of blue and pink to highlight the dog’s other striking features and express the canine’s energetic nature.
Depending on your personal taste, you could leave the background plain white as the original design, or make it colorful and play around with multiple shades.
With this pattern’s versatility, you’ll be able to enjoy lots of crafts and arts. You can transform this design into a big c2c crochet Border Collie blanket or an impressive tapestry wall hanging in appreciation of your dear pet.
And like my other dog-inspired crochet patterns, Boston Terrier and Baby Dalmatian Dog, this is a handy design for making thoughtful gifts for a dog-loving friend and family.
Whether you’re a novice or a seasoned crocheter, this is a project you would enjoy. It has easy-to-follow instructions and helpful tips, ideal for whatever skill level you’re at.
To assist you in tracking your progress, there are also small and large graphs that come with the pattern.
Additionally, you have the freedom to choose from two different approaches to complete your project.
You can either opt for tapestry crochet, utilizing the row-by-row pattern or try the c2c crochet method with the c2c pattern.
Should you prefer the latter, I have a comprehensive C2C crochet guide, complete with video tutorials, tips, and everything you need to familiarize the technique.
I’m excited to see your creation and how you will transform this design! Scroll down to grab your free crochet Border Collie chart and get started. Enjoy!

Border Collie pattern details
Border Collie Graph and finished project sizes
The size of the Border Collie graph is 100 squares high by 80 squares wide.
The size of your project depends on many things like your technique, stitch of choice, hook size, yarn weight, as well as your work tension.
Your technique and stitch of choice, hook size, yarn weight, and work tension affect the yarn quantity of each color you use.
Use the Finished Size & Yarn Quantity Calculator to get an idea of how much yarn you will need and how big your project will be.
Color Palette for Border Collie design
I created this design using the following colors: white, black, gray, pink, and blue, but you can play around with other color combinations.
I’ve calculated the number of squares used by each color to make it easier for you to calculate how much yarn you will need to complete your project.

Not included in the pattern file:
