How to knit a dog cowl for beginners: A step-by-step tutorial

[@maryyoung6380]

I really enjoyed watching your video. It is relaxing to watch all of your stitching all come together in a finished garment for Mac. I really like the color green on Mac. He looks very regal walking down the street . He is such a darling fellow! Thank you for sharing!

[@calicoradio_knits]

Thanks, Christine! Yeah, I really love making things in green and orangey-reds for Mac☺️

[@gwenwalters9207]

It's enjoyable to watch you knitting. The green looks very good on little Mac. He must have a large selection of sweaters.❤❤❤

[@calicoradio_knits]

The green is great on Mac! I picked up yarn in Tiffany blue yesterday to make a sweater for a friend's chihuahua who came for a visit with her fancy Céline bag but no outerwear. Can you imagine? We ran to Biscotte to select something pretty have been knitting today -- it doesn't take long for a little 1 kilo chi!

[@calicoradio_knits]

Oh my gosh, a 1 kilo dog🥹 That sweater most have worked up so quick indeed! That’s so great - I love when I can knit something up that’s needed - I’m sure your friend’s chi appreciated it!☺️

Mac you're such a Sport! Now you're all ready for St Paddys' Day! 😁🐾💞🥰 Great job Mom! 👌🤩

[@calicoradio_knits]

Ah yes! We were thinking he could wear it to the St. Paddy’s Day parade this weekend😉🐶

Mon petit coquin de Mac est superbe avec son nouveau petit manteau. Ce vert très printanier lui va très bien. Félicitations à sa maman humaine pour ce magnifique travail. 😊😊😊❤

[@calicoradio_knits]

Merci beaucoup, Michelle!🥰

[@jeannejett2299]

The color suits Mac & he's a very patient model. I like the easy on/off pattern. You have very gifted hands 🧶💖🐾🐾

[@calicoradio_knits]

Thanks so much, Jeanne!☺️💕

Thrilled to see this cowl pattern from you. I had knitted your Edinburgh seamless sweater pattern recently, which was such a lovely pattern & so easy to follow ( thanks!) and fitted brilliantly we thought. However sadly Heidi the dachshund I knitted it for has very, very short front legs & she kept lifting them up into the sweater & getting stuck, no matter how I tried to adjust the leg holes. I started to think about knitting something to just go over her body & voila … you’ve given me the solution 😂👍🏻 I hope Heidi will look as cute as Mac 😍

[@calicoradio_knits]

Ah excellent! I’m glad to hear that, Susie and definitely understand the leg hole issue with doxie legs 😄 Since you’re also making it for a dachshund, I would potentially recommend making the back section a bit shorter than I did. Now that Mac has worn it for a few weeks, we’ve found the back section tends to move around a bit too much and the wind sometimes catches it. I plan to remove a few inches and see if that helps. Happy knitting!🙂

Mac has a new fancy sweater! 💚🌭 How long did it take to make that? You're so talented!! 😃🧶

[@calicoradio_knits]

Thanks so much!! 🥰 This one worked up pretty quickly because of the yarn being so thick - it took around 2 days 🙂

So cute 🥰. Mac looks like a superhero with a cape.

[@calicoradio_knits]

Thanks! My husband said the same thing 😉💕
