Yesterday, some of the girls from school came by to visit me. Christina and Jaclyn brought their new puppy Loki over. So, knowing of Loki’s imminent arrival, I figured I’d try out my first dog sweater. I found, without too much searching, a great pattern online, Midnight Knitter’s pup sweater. I figured it would be a quick knit and I was right. However, when I asked for Loki’s measurements, I found he was really tiny,and I had to adjust the pattern quite a bit. The sweater was a little long, but otherwise a fairly good fit. A simple roll-up did the trick.
Besides being thoroughly entertained by academic gossip and puppy antics, I learned that sweater + dog = sleepy dog.
Surprising, since Loki rode the train from Harlem to Bushwick and slept the whole way!
