    Cute dog sweater!

    Easy to knit, but a little tricky. “Easy” does not mean “beginner” on this website. Read directions carefully. I wrote out row-by-row directions. Used long, straight needles rather than circular and left stitches on needle when shaping belly. Used DPNs to cast on and simultaneously work two sets of 14 sts (M size) for belly ribbing needed for leg openings. When leg opening is complete, these sts can be worked back onto long needle. Picking up sts for leg edgings is tricky b/c opening is small. I used Forest self-striping yarn, but if you have leftover worsted, this striped sweater is a good way to use scraps. I did not sew collar/belly seam—left as cardigan for easy on/off. May attach Velcro strips for snugger fit. Recommend working leg edgings BEFORE/ sewing collar/belly seam—easier to work on flat piece/access wrong side than on closed up sweater. Puppy liked sweater and it kept her warm on 30 degree day.

    Easy to stitch

    Fairly easy to follow. I have never followed a pattern before but i was able to produce a lovely sweater with cookie curmble yarn. I wasn’t familiar with some of the terms but i looked them up and it was fine. Dod the medium size for my min pin.

    Where do I find size measurements?

    Shape back: am I doing an increase each RS row when doing hje 'work even in pat'? What about the 'rep last' and then 'cont even' sections

    Shape back1

    Shape Belly, WS faving join sparate length of matching color of yarn to opposite end of needle to working yarn and using 2 needle cable cast on method cast on (18) breake yarn. I am unsure about this step. Also with the next 2 rows i am a little confused.

    Let's Go Rib Knit Dog Sweater. I am done up to the "Divide for Leg Openings", which said to (P2, K2) 5 times, P1 (large) and put rem sts on a st holder, and followed the pattern on the 21 sts, back/forth. HOW do I rejoin with working yarn in mid row??
