Doggie Diner Sweater


I made a dog sweater for a real dog who lives with the custodian of the doggie diner heads.

Since this is for a real dog, I made this out of Red Heart acrylic, sport weight. This sweater should be indestructable.

I used a generic top-down raglan sweater pattern with stitch count adjusted to leave more stitches in back then in front. The doggier diner logo was charted in Excel. I used size 5 needles throughout.

28 stitches all around, 8 stiches for back, 4 stiches for each sleeve, 4 stiches for the front & the usual 8 raglan increase stiches.

The dog hasn't received the sweater yet so I don't know how the sweater actually fits. Besides, the dog is still a puppy. The fit will change over time.
