It's a bit chilly in the winter here in North Idaho and our store mascot (Bentley) loves to go on walks and get outside like the rest of us.   I have been experimenting with some different techniques to come up with a cute, comfortable dog sweater pattern that our customers can knit  for their furry friends.    This is a prototype that needs more work and I wanted to share where I'm at with the initial version.  It is a quick knit bottom up sweater using circular needles with no seaming in a worsted weight yarn.  The legs openings and chest area have a little more structure with  1x1 ribbing to add comfort and a little extra stretch when putting over your puppies head and while walking.[caption id="attachment_1063" align="aligncenter" width="300"]
