Flower Power Pet Sweater Pattern

Introducing the Flower Power Pet Sweater pattern! Adorn your fur baby with this groovy sweater or better yet, knit yourself a matching cardi and twin away! The Flower Power Pet Sweater is a fun and fashion forward accessory for any pet. Using a flat construction and the intarsia method of colorwork, this sweater shows off a large flower design using big blocks of color without having floats of stranded colorwork. Sleeveless, with a longer rounded back hem and a shorter hem on the belly, this sweater is incredibly versatile. The flat construction allows for the option to either seam together for a pullover sweater or add eye hooks for a cardigan for pets who don’t like things pulled over their head.  Pattern details: Skill Level: Emerging Beginner to Intermediate Knitter Needle Size: Size US 15 (10 mm) 32” / 80 cm circular needles or longer for magic loop method for neck ribbing  Size US 17 (12.75 mm) 24” / 60 cm circular needles or size needed to obtain gauge for body of sweater Sizes:  XXS (XS, S, M)[L, XL, XXL] Finished Measurements: Neck Circumference:  8 (9, 12, 14)[17, 19, 23]” / 20 (23, 30.5, 35.5)[43, 48, 58.5] cm  Chest Circumference:  13 (16, 19, 22)[27, 32, 36]” / 33 (40.5, 48, 56)[68.5, 81, 91.5] cm Approximate Back Length (including neck and hem):  14 (16.75, 19, 23.25)[27.25, 31.25, 34.5]” / 35.5 (42.5, 48, 59)[69, 79.5, 88] cm Fit Note: Recommended to be worn with 2-4” / 5-10 cm of positive ease at the chest, depending on your preferred fit.
