PuppyKnits: 12 QuickKnit Fashions for Your Best Friend

by Jil Eaton

Owners and their pets can show off with this collection of 12 fun and upbeat knitwear designs for the stylish dog about town. Cute everyday sweaters and ritzy special occasion designs even include a felted, waterproof sweater for drizzly days. As well as sweaters, there are hats for every occasion, such as the Holiday Spritz and the Puppy Fez. All are knitted in fine quality yarns that are soft, sumptuous, and never itchy. The book also showcases a range of accessories, such as a collar and leash, felted toys, and a cozy doggie bed. A measuring chart for breeds of all sizes, knit-to-fit instructions, and a primer on basic stitches make this an all-in-one guide in a fun, portable format. Quick to knit and very functional, these are knits that any pooch would be happy to wear.

I have big plans for some of the great projects in this little book. Lots of color and plenty of choices for the perfect knitted gift for the dog in your life. The author has the patterns in several sizes so that you can find the perfect fit.

Small book with clear instructions on how to measure your dog, knit to fit and many cute patterns. I’m most taken with the cover piece which it a Fair Island Pullover called Jester done in bright colors

The puppy pictures are just adorable! If I start now I might can knit Ellie a cute little something before next winter. First, must measure little poochie to assure that it will look cute on her.
