This pattern is named for my mother’s dog Peggy, a wire-haired Jack Russell for whom I designed this sweater. Though it was made for a small to medium-sized dog, the ribbing allows for plenty of give to accommodate dogs of different shapes and sizes. The neck can also be rolled back, as shown. I knit it in machine-washable acrylic, but feel free to substitute any kind of worsted-weight yarn for this project. This is a PDF pattern that you can download upon purchase. Difficulty level: Easy Supplies: US 8 (5 mm/UK 6) 16” circular needle 1 ball Red Heart Worsted Acrylic (or one in each color if you want to make stripes) Stitch holder (scrap yarn will do) Stitch marker Weaving needle Finished measurements (approximate): 16” neck, 11” legholes, 20” waist
