Knitting pattern for dog coat/jumper

teddysmum

am posting this in two places as people don't use all areas of the forums.


I knit items, for an animal charity fundraising site, using donated yarns, but having been asked about a simple design, now find that both patterns I had in mind have been withdrawn from the internet.


Both patterns were for smallish dogs and consisted of two pieces which you sew together. One was called Linus' sweater and the other pattern was similar, but suggesting you use your own stitch option.


Three are still lots of internet references, but they just lead you in circles with no pattern instructions.


Has anyone, by any chance , copied down the instructions and could let me have them , please ?

I found a picture of the pattern on ravelry (I love ravelry!). While the pattern was removed there was a link in the bottom of the comments section as so many people were requesting it. I think this is your pattern, hope it helps!

Yes it is the one and I actually found it, but didn't think it was the actual pattern as it doesn't look like the usual ones.


Now to see if I can find the other one, which has instructions for changing shape and size (It's for someone who asked if I had a simple pattern as she has lots of small rescued dogs and wants to try knitting.)


I hadn't realised that there were archives of patterns. (I'll copy the in future, as I have just saved useless links.)
