Shadow's First Doggy Sweater!




I finally finished Shadow's sweater. I kept putting off the sewing part and if I had to do it again, I would make this sweater in the round. This yarn was very thick and I hated the seams. Shadow was sweet enough to model the sweater for the family. I gave him two treats. It could have been a bit longer but in the future, I'll get it right. I call this his "Prep School Sweater" because it reminds me of a tie. Don't worry. For his next sweater, this hipknitta is going to make him something wild!

I am new to the area and also love knitting. Where do you recommend buying yarn? Love your doggie sweater!

I buy my yarn from all over. Sometimes I go to AC Moore, sometimes a LYS and many times I buy from KnitPicks, over the internet. Let me know where you live-maybe you can join our knit-out!
