Measurements: To ensure the perfect fit for your dog, measure the circumference of their chest, neck, and length from the base of the neck to the tail. Use these measurements as a guide to customize the pattern accordingly.
Back Panel:
- Cast on the desired number of stitches for the back panel based on your dog’s chest measurement. (For example, cast on 60 stitches for a chest circumference of 12 inches and a gauge of 5 stitches per inch.)
- Knit in stockinette stitch until the back panel measures the desired length from the base of the neck to the tail.
Cable Panel:
- Determine the number of stitches needed for the cable panel. This can vary based on your dog’s chest measurement and desired cable pattern.
- Begin and end each row with a few stitches in stockinette stitch for a smooth edge.
- Work the cable pattern of your choice in the center of each row. You can choose a simple cable pattern or a more intricate one.
- Continue working the cable panel until it matches the length of the back panel.
Belly Panel:
- Measure the distance between the chest and the base of the neck.
- Cast on the desired number of stitches for the belly panel based on this measurement. The number of stitches should match the width of the back panel.
- Knit in stockinette stitch until the belly panel measures the desired length from the chest to the tail.
Assembly:
- Seam the belly panel to the back panel using a mattress stitch or the desired seaming method. Leave openings for the front legs.
- Seam the sides of the back panel and belly panel together, leaving openings for the hind legs.
- Attach buttons or other closures along the belly panel to secure the coat.
