Isn't he so handsome? Now Elvis and his Mommy have matching sweaters. We will make a fine looking pair when we go for long walks together. I used my favorite Dog sweater pattern. The pattern is at http://doggoneknit.com/?page_id4 I really like this pattern because of the Velcro closure under the neck and under the tummy. It makes getting the sweater on and off very easy. I used Red Heart Bright and Lofty, the color Beach, and 1 strand of Alpaca the color Royal blue to make the sweater extra warm. It can get very cold in South Dakota in the winter.

I have finally did it. I have knit a sweater. I have been knitting for about 2 years when I first started knitting, I wanted to learn to knit socks. I did learn to knit socks, and I love hand knit socks. Then I wanted to learn to knit a sweater, I am knitted many things before I achieved that goal. I have been searching for an easy pattern for about a year. I finally found one that I thought that I could knit with out to much trouble, and got busy. The pattern can be found at http://www.dailyknitter.com/kelly.html I did not use the recommended yarn because it has 20% wool in it , and I can not wear wool. To itchy for me. I chose Red Heart Bright and Lofty, the color Beach. Now I am knitting a matching sweater for my dog Elvis we should make a very handsome pair!

I am so excited about knitting a real sweater, that I could not wait until it was finished to take a picture of it. I am using Red Heart Bright, and Lofty yarn. The color is called beach. I picked a very, very easy pattern. I hope that it fits when I am done with it.

Bev's Basic Cozy Cap. The pattern can be found at http://www.bevscountrycottage.com/bevbasichat.html I used 2 strands of Red Heart yarn the color Cherry Red for the Hat. For the ribbing on the hat I used 1 stand of red fuzzy yarn along with one strand of Red Heart cherry red. I also used the fuzzy yarn for the pom pom on the top of the hat. I am sure that she will love the hat. She loves every thing that I knit for her.
The pattern that I used for this sweater is at http://doggoneknit/?page_id=4 It is the One Piece Sweater Pattern for Small, Medium, and Large dogs. I made it in the small size for Elvis. He only weighs 13 lbs. And it fit him Perfectly. It closes with Velcro around the neck and around the tummy, so it is very, very easy to get on and off. I used Red Heart yarn in Cherry Red, and another variegated yarn. 2 strands held together so that the sweater would be warmer. This sweater was so easy to knit. That I will probably make him a few more in different colors. I love spoiling him.
