Paw Print Dog Sweater Crochet Pattern

I designed a new Dog Sweater :

Paw Print Dog Sweater.

It was quite the challenge, as I included a graph or chart 

for the paw print on the back of the sweater.

I have never done a graph for crochet before,

 and I learned a lot along the way.

How to change colors neatly, trailing your yarn, 

having several balls of yarn attached 

at the same time,

and of course, 

how to read and incorporate

 the graph into the pattern.

It was fun.

I have several more graph style dog sweaters 

I am going to design, floating around in my head!!!

If you would like the pattern you can find in in my

Zoey's Sweater

I made my Grand daughter Zoey 

a little Shrug style sweater.

It seems that everything is short sleeved, 

So she needed a little sweater.

White yarn is so hard to photograph.

I used Red heart pearl baby yarn.

The pattern Can be found at this link:

Baby Sweater

This is not my pattern, But its a really 

easy pattern to follow.

I shortened the body,

 as well as, the sleeves.

I also added the shell stitches 

on the yoke.

Making Labels

I decided to make Cloth labels for my items.

I did a little investigating 

and experimenting,

And this is what I came up with.

The Fabric is Blue with  blue paw prints.

I wanted it a colored fabric, because 

I wanted to print in Black.

All I wanted on the label,

is my webpage and then this pic, 

of the Chihuahuas, 

which is on everything.

This is what I did.

I bought  inkjet iron transfer paper.

Then make a template of what I wanted.

Be sure to print in the mirror image, 

or it will all be backwards!

 I printed it,

 ironed it,

 and cut it with pinking shears.....

And I love it!

Super Easy!

Oh, I got 48 labels on 1 sheet.

Oh, it is a sew on label, which I prefer.

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

with this cool Snood!
