Check the markings before sorting beads

At 87x87, check that both eyes, the ear tips, the cream muzzle and chest, and the outer outline stay distinct. If any edge looks crowded, compare another size before preparing the material piles.

What to verify before crafting

Digital HEX and RGB values are sourced approximations, not an official Perler screen-color standard. Check SKU availability and compare physical beads under your own lighting before buying materials.

Shiba Perler pattern FAQ

The 87x87 grid leaves room for the pointed ears, cream face and chest markings, eyes, and smile. A smaller grid uses fewer beads but can merge those details, so compare the preview before resizing.
