Plato's Dog Coat

Plato’s Dog Coat is a knitting pattern for making a sweater intended for dogs the size of a Beagle Terrier or a Welsh Corgi.  This is a new original design created by Cecilia Lee.   It is worked as one piece from the collar down and intended to give the dog warmth, flexibility, and comfort for all his winter activities.  


For those who own bigger or smaller dogs, they must adjust the pattern to fit.  See the chapter on “Pattern Alterations” before you start the project. 


This dog sweater knitting pattern uses Cable Cast-on, Short Rows, and a simple Aran Cable pattern.  All techniques are thoroughly explained in the book.  Many beautifully rendered drawings, tables, and graphs are created to clarify the instructions.
