Here is Colin wearing his new sweater. I don't think he has quite figured out that a warm sweater is a good thing. I knitted this basic dog sweater pattern with Knit Picks Swish worsted in Brick. I used size 9 Turbo needles for the body (4.5 sts and 6 rows to the inch) and my size 8 Addi dpns for the neck and sleeves. I used my size 8 Denise needles for the outer ribbing around the sweater. I put it on Caitlin, too, as she is a little smaller than Colin and I had planned on going down a needle size for her sweater. It fit her fine, so I will not make any adjustments. In the short time she had it on, though, she started biting on it and trying to take it off.
Colin looks adorable in his new sweater!! I'm sure the two of them will become accustomed to their winter wear in no time. :)

How cute!
Though Caitlin's reaction is the same as what Bogey's would be. He just prefers to be au naturale. He also likes the cold. I guess when you are born with a fur coat....

Colin looks great in his sweater - you have done a lovely job. Hope he is not tearing it out.
