Knitted dog sweater
A couple years ago I had knitted and donated lots of doggy sweaters to ElderDog Canada (using the same pattern but with different colours and colour combos). They recently promoted the sweaters from various knitters that are in their online store. Mine was popular and ElderDog asked if I could knit 3 more (they are already spoken for). Of course!

Knitted beanies
I knitted some beanies to donate.
Cast on 80 sts. Place marker, join being careful not to twist sts.
Shape Crown
Finishing
I found the pattern here and it was an easy pattern.
I don't have a small 5.5mm circular needle so used 6.5mm so it's a bit bigger than a beanie and fits like a comfy hat.
- Rounds 1-8: Work in 2x2 Rib stitch pattern until beanie measures 2” (5 cm) from cast-on edge
- Rounds 9-22: Knit around
- Round 1: Knit.
- Round 2 (dec): *K6, K2tog; repeat from * around — 70 sts.
- Round 3: Knit.
- Round 4 (dec): *K5, K2tog; repeat from * around — 60 sts.
- Round 5: Knit.
- Round 6 (dec): *K4, K2tog; repeat from * around — 50 sts.
- Round 7: Knit.
- Round 8 (dec): *K3, K2tog; repeat from * around — 40 sts.
- Round 9: Knit.
- Round 10 (dec): *K2, K2tog; repeat from * around — 30 sts.
- Round 11: Knit.
- Round 12 (dec): *K1, K2tog; repeat from * around — 20 sts.
- Round 13: Knit.
- Round 14: *K2tog; repeat from * around — 10 sts.
Finishing
Cut yarn leaving a 6” (15 cm) tail. With yarn
needle, draw tail through remaining 10 sts
twice, pull tightly and fasten off. Weave in
ends. Block lightly.
