Why aren’t there more pants for dogs? Why shouldn’t their tiny behinds be as warm as their fronts? Because no one has come up with a knitting pattern that works. Well here is one that does! This sweater set is meant to fit snugly on your loved one. It is a tight knit, and when finished should move with him/her and not allow for any ‘pull through’ of paws. It can also act as a security garment for those dogs with anxiety issues. It is designed to fit both male and female animals, so they can go to the bathroom without removing or soiling their clothing. By varying the colours or adding some stripes you can create a whole new wardrobe for your pet.

Sizing is for Medium to Small - Pattern is created to fit snugly on a 13 lb dog with a 13 inch back length (collar to base of tail) , The sweater will also fit a 6 lb dog (loosely), but adjustments would have to be made to the length of the body and legs for the smaller size.

The set can be made with only one ball of yarn, but since you’ll likely want to have the pants a different colour, 2 balls are called for.

Have fun and dress your pet for the season!
