Chunky Knit Dog Collar Free Knitting Pattern | Posh Pooch Designs

Rosie Bell Loves to model!

 It has been snowing for 2 days. 

I do not mind, I love the snow 

and it does not stop us from getting out.

It is so beautiful and 

sparkles like tiny diamonds.

Do You love or hate snow?

Maximo Loves to Model, too.

See his smile!

I was playing with some 

left over chunky variegated yarns, 

yesterday 

and designed a fun Dog Collar.

And I want to share it 

with you today.

I designed this collar for any size dog,

Cat, pet or even human!

Maximo's Collar

See how easy that is.

It is super Easy to make and a fun 

way to use of your left over yarns.

You could even use 2 strands 

of WW(4) yarns

for a really interesting look.

I love a slip on decorative collar

 for my pooches.

They love them too.

It is a way for added warmth, 

they stay on and 

there are no buttons, 

Velcro or buttons to fuss with.
