With over 15 knitting patterns for popular dog breeds, including a Labrador, Poodle, Dachshund, Jack Russell and many more, you can knit your precious pet, reproduce your favourite breed, or even knit the dog you have always dreamed of.

The knitted dog is, of course, the ideal easy-care companion; it lives forever, there's no feeding, no barking, no moulting, no vets' bills - a perfect pet.
