Adorn your pup with a Kaleidoscope Sweater! Better yet, knit yourself a matching sweater or cardi and twin away! The Kaleidoscope Pet Sweater is a great beginner sweater and a fun way to learn basic sweater-shaping techniques on a smaller scale. It is also a fast and satisfying project for a more advanced knitter. Worked from the top down, seamlessly in the round in stockinette stitch, this yoke-style sweater is easy to customize while mixing different yarns to create a fun and colorful pet accessory. Sleeveless, with a longer rounded back hem and a shorter hem on the belly, this sweater is incredibly versatile. Make yourself a matching sweater for the cutest pet/parent set around!
