Warm Pup Sweater

This crocheted pink pup sweater was stitched to size for my little dog.

We have an active dog, but her small frame and thin fur sometimes leave her shivering! This pink pup sweater was crocheted to size using handspun wool yarn.

Mila loves to go anywhere we go. Even though she stays active, her small frame and thin fur sometimes leave her shivering!

I chose pure wool for her sweater, so she would still be warm when she gets snow-damp. I’m not sure how this bright, fun, extra-girly colorway came home from the fiber shop with me, because it’s so not my style. But when I was looking for the perfect fiber in the perfect colorway for this project, I had no success.

Luckily this merino from my fiber stash was just what I needed, so I took some time over the course of a weekend to spin up this fluffy 2-ply worsted weight.

Usually I just spin to make yarn, not really thinking about what it will be. This time, I knew just what I’d crochet with it, and who would wear it!  She seems to understand what the sweater does for her and is happy to sport it.
