I would love to be able to download the pattern for your dog, Chile, new superwash tunic. I have a new puppy and am looking for successful patterns that really fit a dog.

thanks for all the compliments on Chile's sweater and the shawl! The sweater is just a tube with two holes on the underside for her legs...I'll see if i can draft up a generic pattern/blueprint for next week's post here. The shawl is a prototype of a design I'm planning for a future issue of Knitscene..working out the kinks and then will have more info. Thanks all!

Your shawl is GORGEOUS. Is this a pattern you will eventually make available to the public, if so please put me on the list!!!

I just bought the new Knitscene magazine and love the patterns. I expected to see the pattern for the dog's sweater as well and was disappointed. Is it available?

Love that peacock color yarn AND the leaf pattern shawl you are free-forming. Could you identify the name of that yarn as I would love to buy some to knit a shawl myself (and I love your pattern so far!!). Keep us all posted if you finalize that pattern! Sign me up for one interested customer!

Thanks!!!

Aww! Chile is adorable -- and I love that her tunic looks a bit like a doggie version of the Cobblestone pullover!

love the dog in the coat! Since the dog is a chiweenie with what looks like the 'weenie' body will this coat fit a mini weenie. I am always looking for coats patterns that are long enough for my mini dachshunds. Is the coat in the latest copy of Knitscene? Will go get a copy today. Lastly is the new dog addition a rescue? It is always better to adopt not buy! :)

Congratus on your doggie...life without a dog is like not breathing freely for me!

I love your magazine and while I will be 65 this year I am knitting more than ever

did....keep up the good work.
