Notes on a dog jumper… I’ve always wanted to make up a crocheted jumper for Bertie to wear and I finally got around to it. Once I had something that fit him well and that he was happy to wear, I knew I wanted to make more!

Please Note
When using this pattern, please be aware that there is no choice of sizes, no tutorials or any of the usual extras and help that I would provide in one of my full patterns. Instead, these are just the basic, rough and untested notes that I made for my own use which I’ve tidied up to share as requested! But hopefully this will provide a starting point for you to begin your own experiments if you are looking to keep your dog cozy and warm.
