My new to me little darling Cricket spent most of the day yesterday at the vet’s office. It would seem that her, ah, new to the doggy scene owner mistakenly gave her unrestricted access to a rawhide chew. The result was a gluey rawhide mass in her tummy and a $500+ vet bill.
To deal with my anxiety (and guilt) while waiting for the vet’s call I opted for a “drop everything emergency knit”. My poor little darling needed a sweater and I hadn’t knit one yet. This was the time! I selected a straightforward little number by Brian Herzog for speed and efficiency.
She practically jumped into the sweater, so it’s terribly funny to me that she’s looking so underwhelmed in these photos. Maybe it’s because her bit of knitted love is not in purple. Guess that means I’ll have to knit another!
I love her sweater! Nice job 😃
Thanks, Sarah!
This is just the adorablest!
Thanks for stopping by and taking the time to comment! Love your site as well!
Thank you, and you’re very welcome
Aw, poor puppy! Do love her sweater though!
Thanks, Ana! It was actually a very fast knit. Hubbie was totally surprised that it took less than a 24 period of time.
Puppy is also doing much better today.
I think it is totally cool that you can whip out a garment in a day.
And I think it’s totally cool you said absolutely nothing about the state of the house (so I could knit that garment in a day). Thanks, hubs!
Adorable adorable! The pup and the sweater!
If I sent you measurements, would you do one for my boss’s dog Cookie? I’ll pay you! It’s have to be in pink!

Thank you so much for your vote of confidence in my work, Adine! I don’t venture into made to order items… just ask my knitting buddy that I still need to spin roving for… four months after she gave it to me (at least). However, I know there are folks on etsy that do just that. Shoot, you could probably even get a hot pink one with a skull and cross bones pattern on the back if you were so inclined.
Cool! I’ll check it out!
