Note added 2/7/18
All of my FREE crochet patterns for pets are intended for personal use and charity. Because of the countless comments I have gotten recently in protest of this old request, I have had to turn off any future comments on this post. Every few years there is a new wave of crocheters who want to argue copyright law when I am only asking you to think about being a kind and generous person. I don't have the time or the spirit for unnecessary bull. Sorry. I will be very pleased to see your projects added to Ravelry. Keep the crocheting enjoyable for everyone.

  3. I made a beautiful santa suit for my little short haired dog. It is so warm and comfy she doesn't like to take it off. It is out of the leftover red bamboo yarn with white fluffy polyester collar.

  8. I love these little sweaters! they are SO CUTE! Though, I have a quick question. While I know a few people that would love one of these as a gift, I was wondering if it would also fit a cat? My cat likes to hang out on the porch in the fall. H is getting older and I was wondering if these would fit him as well.

    1. The patterns will allow you to make a sweater for pretty much anything that walks on 4 legs. I've made them for cats, a ferret, guinea pigs, and a bunny. Some people have used the pattern to make sweaters for baby goats.

  11. I can't wait to make this for my hound mix rescue. He has such fine short hair and it has finally gotten cold here in the South! Poor guy was shaking when I let him out last night for a couple minutes! Love all the cute and clever options too! Sooo creative :)

  14. I have been looking for a comprehensible dog sweater pattern for some time and yours certainly qualifies! My dog is a cross between a boxer and a pit bull and I am more concerned about her chest getting cold than her back. Thank you SO much for the obvious effort that went into the pattern.
