Dog wearing a knitted coat

Who could resist our dog coat?

This week we have a striped cosy coat for man’s best friend.

Yes, pamper your pooch this week with our striped coat for dogs which comes in four sizes ranging from Small to Extra Large.

The coat is worked in Red Heart Super Saver in five shades: Aran (0313), Jade (3862), Minty (0520), Pretty ‘n Pink (0722) and Grenadine (0705).

This versatile yarn is 100% acrylic and will wash and wear well. You can find out more about the yarn and order direct from www.creativeworldofcrafts.co.uk.

In addition to a pair of 5 mm knitting needles you will also need a 4.5 mm circular needle or set of four double-ended needles.

The coat is worked in stocking-stitch (knit one row, purl one row) apart from the collar, leg openings and back ribs.

The stripe pattern features five shades and is worked over a 32-row repeat.

As the chillier days approach, we are sure this coat will be a real winner with our four-legged friends everywhere.
