Unfortunately I cannot find the person's post right now, but I remember reading of a woman who found a teddy bear sweater at the Dollar Tree which fit her Yorkie perfectly... a sweater for teddy bears, that is. I may have the actual name of the dollar store wrong but I'm fairly certain that's what she wrote. Sorry I couldn't reference it for you but I remember thinking it was a great idea for a really tiny puppy!

We have a Dollar General and a Family Dollar in our small town of 2500 people. They have those two stores and the Dollar Tree's in Abilene about 25 miles from our house so I'll go check them this week. That sounds so cute. I would love to see them in a teddy bear sweater, especially the boys. Plus I'm trying to find some clothes to go with Jake for whenever he finds his Forever Family. Thanks for letting us know.

I just LOVE those sweaters!!!! They are cuter than any sweater I have purchased!!!!! Darling!!

I forgot to put the measurement of that shirt and Dani.

Dani from neck to tail was 9" and around her girth was 9"

So when mom used the baby yarn and the size 3 needle it came out perfect.

Here is another sweater my mom just finished. She made it a little longer so she could grow. It actually fits her fine as it covers her tail and that ribbon bow hits right at the end of her hiney which is so cute. Then underneath it's still cut far enough up her tummy where she doesn't tinkle on it.

This is my favorite one so far.

Thank you for the knitting instructions for that sweater. Your little one is adorable. As soon as I finish what I am knitting now, I will try it. I've put all kinds of sweater-like things on her. She has a small car seat and it amazes me when I take her out how she gets out of her clothes. I glance at her when driving and she is often sleeping so I don't know how or when she wiggles out of her things. Bewildered at the yorkie technology. Judy

Wow your mom should start a business her sweaters are prettier then I have seen in any store, I love them!

rtsmichele · 04-06-2009, 06:02 AM

I spent the weekend playing. I crocheted a one piece outfit with 4 legs, made and decorated two jean jackets, one plaid jacket, a fun fur vest, a cute, little, pink tutu and crocheted another sweater. I"m half way through another one piece outfit. I'll post pictures later this week. My camera went to Hawaii with my 20 yo son.

My 17 yo daughter tells me that I'm now officially the "crazy dog lady" LOLOL.
