Product Description
Product Description
What dog lover wouldnt be delighted with a magnificent hand-knitted sweater for Fido - and what knitter wouldnt be proud to create it? Dog sweaters can be made with leftovers from larger projects, and completed in the same time it takes to knit a hat, scarf, or mittens. There are eight basic patterns with variations, plus instructions for sizing up or down, three patterns for hard-to-fit breeds (Pugs, Chihuahuas, Dachshunds), four accessories (a snood, a hat, a kerchief, and a collar), and three home projects (a bed, a blanket, and a toy). Photographs of pooches wearing the finished sweaters, plus start-to-finish instructions (including how to measure the dog) ensure a stylish look and a perfect fit.

Is it just me? But when you buy a dog knitting book it's beacuse you want to knit coats for your dog? I don't want bandaners and covered collars and stuffed toys and baskets, just coats? This book is quite good in that respect although there isn't actually that many coat patterns but takes into account different body shapes. Only quibble (apart for the addition of usless items such as hats which even the auther confesses her sturggle to get the dog photographed in it) is there could do to have a couple of bigger sizes, I've got a top end shih tzu who is in the largest sizes in this book so they don't go to very large sizes. But the best dog coat book I've come across so far but still room for somebody to improve.

Great patterns but be warned. All bar one are knitted on circular or 4 needles and not 2 needles as I assumed.

A good idea, some great items but I have knitted a couple & they all come up small so I suggest you all knit the next size up.

Little cosy dog
A useful book of varied patterns. Easy to use once I had got used to American instructions. I used double knitting yarn where it said 'worsted' and that seemed to be fine. Read more

Doggie knits
Nice book with lots of lovely photos. Some nice easy patterns but some quite complicated. Plenty of different sizes and shapes so something for just about every dog. Read more

Lovely Colours and Patterns
This is an American book so patterns are written a little bit differently than the English. Gives great ideas for colours. Have not knitted anything yet though!!
