So after I learned to knit my goal level was to be able to cabling - CHECK! My second goal was to knit a hat - (waiting on Mary to show me her techniques) BUT my third goal was to knit doggy clothes for my little boys - CHECK! YEAH! I knitted a chunky “thick and quick” wool doggy sweater with fun fur trim. It was quick (about 1 day). The pattern was a two piece construction that you sew together. I added a crochet fun fur trim which helps hide construction flaws that sealed the edges. I know Jackson felt left out so I made him a scarf out of the remaining yarn.

doggy fashion

I would like to add that Victor promptly peed on it - about 15 minutes on…
