Cavalier King Charles spaniel needlepoint patterns

Most show a Cavalier King Charles spaniel's head, facing front, with long, wavy ears that hang below the chin, drawn in more than one style.

It has a blaze down the middle of the face to the muzzle, and color over each eye and cheek. All are four inches square on 18 mesh, and at least one can be made round or as an eight-inch mini pillow on 13 mesh. The long ears frame the face, so count their outer edges first.
