This is it..

Vacation is over, back to work tomorrow, so the knitting frenzy will slow down while I go back to teaching and preparing for the trip to ID. 
So this is my last dog dress.  Tomorrow I will Priority mail them to Yvonne, and hopefully she will find someone, among her flock of 10 chihuahua's, who will fit into them and be able to use them. I look forward to some feedback on sizing and placement of leg holes...  This ruffled dress was interesting as I had to pick up the stitches that had been previously knit, and then add stitches to make the ruffle.  I thought the ruffles might be too 'heavy', but maybe not.  Yvonne will have to let me know how it works on a real dog.  I think this turned out cute, but the variegated yarn didn't work too well on such a small item.  I had the same problem when I mad a baby hat with the same yarn.

  1. Wow! Look at you go - cute stuff - I know they'll be appreciated by all! I like the pony tail hangy down thingy - it's just flat out cool. Happy New Year!
