Dog Sweater Pattern?

[knotyourgrandma]

I'm looking for a pattern for a medium-large dog. All I've been able to find are small dog patterns. I have some bright orange yarn and I want to make my black lab a safety sweater for when he's out in the woods.

You could always adapt a pattern by using a larger hook and more yarn.

I make my chis lots of sweaters and custom fiting can be a challenge. This pattern has no leg holes so fitting it to a large dog would be easier than most sweater patterns.

Thanks! That one should work. I think I saw it before when I was looking around, but passed over it because I saw all of the little dogs. I didn't read the whole thing and see the directions to make it bigger!

You're welcome wouldn't want your pup to be in harms way not wearing his orange;)

I just got the booklet from Annie's Attic called "Doggie Costumes" and there are pictures of medium/large dogs with the costumes on. The patterns are all adaptable for dogs with 10-29 inch girths. So maybe you could get a copy and work from it. It's a really cute book. Has some great costumes that could be worked as to not be a costume. I got it because I wanted to make my Shih Tzu a tux.
