      Lol, I couldn't wait to make Ginger one... Maybe I should just practice with Peanuts first.

    Hahaha. We had to laugh at sweater attempt number one. The colors are very nice, though. You seem to be getting closer to getting it right. Keep going!

      Thanks for the pep talk. I also loved the colors on number one. I bet it'd fit Peanuts.

    Oh that first one would make a good neck warmer. The sweaters are definitely getting better each time - hang in there Coal you will soon have the best sweater ever :-) woofs & licks from Magic xx

      I appreciate your creative input. Every time my neighbors see Coal wearing the sweater, they smile at it because dogs aren't normally dressed here.

    Haha,

    That's funny - but you have to get 10- out of 10 for trying!!

    Can't wait to see the final version (if you don't run out of wool in the meantime!) :)

    Have fun,

    Your pal Snoopy :)

      Lol. I'll take that 10/10 as a compliment... I use standard yarn. I haven't seen wool being sold here in my city.

    Ha! That looks about like what I would come up with. I never got the hang of knitting or crocheting.

      Lol, you're practically better than all of us combined with this one, Helen. Arts and crafts are your forte.

      I did! Promise! But I didn't use them because I had no pattern to associate the measurements with.

    Hi Y'all,

    Thank heaven I don't need a sweater! My Human can't seem to knit, crochet or even sew much. At least you got a neck warmer and one to grow into. ;)
    I'm sure the next one will fit perfectly. Hey, who needs a pattern anyway?

    Y'all come back now,

    I suppose now I'm going to have to try knitting a dog sweater! I'm sure that Cisco would appreciate it ~ he's such a wuss!
