About this pattern

My pups deserve to look sharp, and so does yours. This sweater has that classic two color houndstooth look, and it's practical too, because the harness clips right on without taking the sweater off.

It comes in eight sizes from XXS to 3X, so every dog gets a good fit. You'll work the houndstooth with no colorwork charts to follow, and the sweater has a ribbed neckband, built in leg holes and a harness opening. A full video tutorial is included.

Why you'll love it

  • Classic houndstooth with no colorwork charts to follow
  • Harness clips on without taking the sweater off
  • Sizes XXS through 3X, from tiny pups to big dogs
  • A ribbed neckband for a snug, cozy fit
