Aphrodite has been wearing her sweater since yesterday. It’s not especially cold, but she seems rather taken with it and objects when I try to take it off.
So today I coaxed her to a spot in the house with a little more light, so you could see it in all its glory. Or her. See her in all her glory.
I give you Aphy, in her Juno’s Friend Jumper.
I thought it might be time for a round-up of all the little jumpers I have so far designed for the hairier 4-legged people in our family. It’s been a while since I did, and the woolly family has grown since then, so let’s gallop down Memory Lane with a quick refresher of the story so far. (I’ll add links to the patterns in case you fancy a go yourself).
* Drumroll please *
Aphrodite has a new jumper.
All will be revealed once I’ve taken some rather more glamorous shots of her somewhere a bit prettier, so watch this space…
But for now, have a picture of Aphrodite in Paintbox Wool-Mix Chunky, in Seville Orange (you’ll need 2 – 3 balls, if you’re thinking of buying in anticipation of the pattern release 😉 )
The rather larger, lanky-leg friendly version of the Juno Jumper is just around the corner <3
….
No. Wait. Life.
A dog is for life.
But since Christmas is nearly upon us, how about she gets to join in with the festivities?
Juno, our little Jack Russell princess, remember? The one who pokes her nose out of the door as a barometer? Then swivels on her heel (so to speak) and hides behind the sofa if conditions are less than perfect?
Well, in an effort to drag her from her grump and into the great outdoors…
… she has a new Christmas jumper.
If you have a petite pooch of your own, who feels the cold and needs some festive cheer, you can find the pattern on the Loveknitting.com blog over here (and it’s free till 18th December)
Now… back to the Christmas knitting !
(And yes, I gave her the biscuit 😂)
