It's been a busy week and I'm recovering from a nasty flu that Henry brought home, so I'm going to be lazy and make this one post serve both Dogs on Thursday and Fiber Arts Friday. Rascal and his sweater are cute enough to hold people's attention for two days.
Project: Rascal's I'm-a-handsome-puppy Cable Sweater
Pattern: Very loosely based on a basic dog sweater pattern found online many years ago when I made Trinket's T-shirt (sweater for Trinket post surgery), but I changed the shaping and added the cables. The neck is knitted in the round, body is knitted in two pieces, until they are long enough to cover the dog. (And on Rascal, the back takes a looooong time!)
Yarn: Paton's Classic Wool
Needle: US size 8
Cost: less than $5
Notes: Rascal is a trooper for clothing-tolerance, so mom hopes there will be many cute outfits to come.

That sweater is gorgeous! What a cutie pie!
what nice looking cables!
That's awefully cute.
Hope you're feeling better soon.
Great sweater. I hope you're feeling better. Happy Fiber Arts Friday!
I do adore cables! My Schnauzers can't wear sweaters...they mat up the hair on their chests and underbelly. Darn it! They would be even more adorable in a cute sweater.
Hope your household gets feel better.
Happy Fiber Arts Friday!
