Hugs and Kisses Dog Sweater

This stunning dog sweater pattern is designed to be worked bottom-up in two separate pieces that are expertly stitched together for a tailored fit. The process begins with crafting the Back portion, which features an intricate cable pattern that includes an 8-stitch Honeycomb design, as well as the captivating Hugs and Kisses cable motif, complemented by classic stocking stitch and ribbing for a beautifully textured finish. Following the completion of the Back, the Underbelly is then created back and forth, utilizing the same 8-stitch Hugs and Kisses cable pattern along with stocking stitch and ribbing, ensuring both style and comfort for your furry friend. Once both the Back and Underbelly are finished, stitches from each piece are skillfully worked together to form a cozy Collar, adding a chic touch to the overall design. Finally, the sides of the Back and Underbelly are seamed together, deliberately leaving a gap that’s perfectly sized for your dog’s legs, ensuring ease of movement while wearing the sweater, and the Collar is elegantly seamed closed to complete the look. This dog sweater is perfect for keeping your pet warm and stylish during chilly days, making it a great addition to their wardrobe. Whether you’re a knitting novice or an experienced crafter, this pattern offers a delightful project that combines knitting techniques with adorable design. Don’t miss out on the chance to create a beautiful, personalized garment for your beloved pet!
