The Bubble Pup Sweater by Stephen West is simply adorable!
"Cover your pup in bubbles with this easy to knit dog sweater. Begin at the neck with ribbing and then use all of your DK and worsted weight color pops for the bubble stripes. Each bubble is knit with one color at a time as you customize the length of the yoke and body to perfectly fit your pooch. The body finishes with a ribbed border to lengthen the back of the sweater, so the belly is shorter and comfortable for your pup to walk and wiggle. The pattern includes video links to help your cast on, work the bubble stitch, divide the arms, and bind off. Choose between nine sizes from petite pups to big breeds. You will become addicted to the playful bubble stitch pattern. It’s so easy to knit and makes a big colorful impact!"

FINISHED MEASUREMENTS:

The length is customizable. Refer to the schematic illustrations for the other measurements. The pattern includes notes where you can customize the size of the sweater to fit your pup. The smaller sizes are designed for petite pups like Chihuahuas, Shih Tzus, and little Terriers and the sizes increase to fit breeds ranging from French Bulldogs and Dachshunds to Boxers, Labradors, and Great Danes. You can adjust your needle size to get a smaller or larger size.
Its recommended to select a size that is approximately 1″ / 2.5cm or 2″ / 5cm larger than your dog’s actual chest circumference for a fit with a little bit of extra wiggle room or select the size that matches your dog’s exact chest circumference for a fitted sweater. The knitted fabric is stretchy, so one size can accommodate a variety of measurements. If you plan to wear the sweater on top of a harness most of the time, then measure your dog while wearing the harness.
For the best measuring results, use a soft tape measure.
