Chunky Dog Snood Crochet Pattern by Sara Sach
Please, Add This Crochet Pattern to Your Ravelry Favorites.

Skill: Easy

Materials:
Crochet Hook: J
Tape Measure - to measure your dog's neck
Yarn: #5 chunky or 2 strands of any Worsted weight yarn,
        Solid and Variegated - I used Charisma  from Michael's

Stitches:
Chain (ch)
Slip Stitch (sl st)
Double Crochet (dc)
Front Post Double Crochet (fpdc)
Stitch Together (st tog)
Change (chg)

Size: Fits a 9 inch dog neck
         3 chs = 1 inch


Getting Started:
The first thing you need to do is measure your dog's neck LOOSELY.

To adjust the pattern to your dog's neck - Your dog's measurement X 3 + 5 chs
For example  - (9 X 3)+5 chs =32 so cha 32 chs for a 9 inch neck

To adjust for length - You will also need the Length measurement:
from the crown of your dog's head, down the back of their head , to the collar.
You will add additional rows for more length.

Pattern:

 NOTE:neck measurement + 7 inches = how long your ch should be.

 ( example Maximo's neck is 10 inches + 7 inches = 17 inches.

 R: 1 - Starting at the hood, Ch for your dog's measurement, 

see note:, join in a circle, being careful not to twist the ch, ch 3

 R: 2 - 1 dc in each ch around, join with a sl st, ch 3

 R:  3 - 1 dc in the 1st dc, *1 fp dc in the next dc, 

1 dc in the next st, repeat from * around, join, ch 3

 R:  4  - 1 dc in each st around, join, ch 3

 R:  5 – R: 7  - Repeat R 4

 R:  8 - (decrease rows) 1 dc in the 1st 4 sts, 

*1 dc dec with the next 2 sts, 1 dc in the next 4 sts, Repeat from * around , join, ch 3

 R:  9 - Repeat R: 8

Repeat R: 8 until you have decreased to your dog's neck measurement .

(Maximo's was 10 inches, so I decreased to 10 inches)

 R: 10 - 1 dc in each dc around, join, ch 3

 Repeat R 10 for the length of your dog's neck.

 R: 11 - Repeat R: 3  and tie off.

Keep your pooch warm
