| Inspiration for Knitters I went online earlier today and began looking at sites that have doggie clothing. I came across the following site and couldn't believe how adorable and expensive the clothing was. I especially loved all the sweaters--easy to copy if you know how to knit. I'm posting this site just in case no one has referenced it before. http://plasticpuppy.com/category/400.sweaters/ |

| Those are adorable! I am just learning how to knit and I just finished my first sweater for Pebbles. It looks so sweet on her. I would love to know how to add a hood! If anyone can figure out a pattern, PLEEEEESE let me know! I am not anywhere near good enough to start making my own patterns! |

| OUCH$$$$$$ Those are really cute but the price is way beyond what I would pay. I know that sometime us knitters/crotchet people don't get what we deserve for our time but I think they are a little too high...

| Ooooh. Thanks for the link. Those are really cute and none of them look like they would be too hard to make. |

| Wow,I couldn't believe the prices of the knit sweaters Oh my goodness, I was stunned to see the prices on some of those sweaters. I designed and knitted for Cassie and she loved wearing them, she hated the ones with the opening for the legs. I have made several of the fun fur for our new Baby and she looks so cute in them. The yarns now out are so beautiful it is really fun to make them. Thanks for posting the site, found it interesting and was we amazed at the prices they are asking. |

First time I did this I made them way to small and the dog couldn't lift it's head hehe That is the first hood you should make. Then when you got the hang of this easy one, you can make hoods that are more pointy by extending one corner a little on both squares. Then sow some yarn on the pointy tip and you've got a real cute hood. Also when you get used to it, knit the side of the squares that attach to the sweater a little shorter, that also looks real cute With the pointy top and the short neckside, the shape of the squares are sort of diamond instead of just square Good luck

| Those clothes are pretty but definitely overpriced. I have seen similar designs for less than that
