Gauge: 14 sts x 13 rows = 4”

Gauge pattern:

Row 1: Ch-18. (sc, dc) in 2nd ch from hook. * sk next ch, (sc, dc) in next * repeat between * * 6 more times. Sk next ch, sc in last. (17)

Rows 2 – 14: Ch-1, turn, * (sc, dc) in next st, sk next st * repeat between * * 7 more times. Sk next st, sc in last. (17) Measure for gauge.

Note on gauge: Always make your swatch slightly larger than it needs to be so that when you measure you are only including inside stitches, not the outside stitches that are not uniform in shape. More on gauge here.

Pattern notes:

Pattern written using US terms.

The chain at the beginning of the row does not count as a stitch.

Front post/Back post stitches are used for the collar. There is a tutorial for these stitches here.

The body of this sweater uses the Thicket (aka Suzette) stitch. There is a tutorial for that stitch here.

    1. Hi Faith! Yes, many of my patterns, which are free on my blog, are available as an ad-free printable pdf format on Ravelry or Etsy for a small charge.

  2. Great pattern! I did not watchel the video. My question is where you begin with chains and doing the hdc across. Assuming that the hanging tail, I am to use a needle to "stitch" into the first chain of the beginning or end of the hdc and tuck and hide? I might have missed it in the directions 5 times but I really didn't see anything about that part...

  3. Thank you for the free pattern. I gave an 8 week old 2.8 pound fur baby who was born in Florida and going to her new home in Virginia in 2 days. I'm going to make this for her to use on the drive home and at home for as long as she can fit into it. I want to make another one as she grows. Do you have a pattern with a hole in the middle of the back to hook a leash to a harness? Is there an easy way to incorporate that into this pattern? Thank you again for the pattern and your help.
    Reply
      1. What I did is if you do the same things for the leg holes on the top by just eyeballing where your harness hits, it works out. My explanation is not that scientific but I just put the harness on my pup, and then just kept trying on the sweater until I got a good spot. I made the chain about 4 chains long, but it may be different based on your harness. Hope this helps!

  5. Wanted to say thank you for the pattern! My cat has been chilly this winter year but she's a very small size (only like 6 1/2-7 lbs) and nothing ever seems to fit her right. I ended up measuring her and she was just a smidge bigger than small but not quite medium so I did an in-between on the sizes and it came out perfect (and I'm sure once she realizes it helps keep her warm she will agree lol).

        1. Would you have any hints as to how to substitute a sk weight yarn? Would it just be a matter of adding stitches to get the same size?
          Reply
    2. Hi, thanks for asking that question. I too have the same type dog , it’s very hard to find clothes for her. I hope she can guide us to the right direction. I love all her patterns and her videos are awesome.

  7. I'm trying to make this dog sweater for my sister in law's dog who is between a size S and M. His neck is 14". I was thinking of doing a M but I feel like the back side would be too long for him. I think from his collar up to before his tail is 15". And when you say go up a size on the hook does that mean use a 6mm hook? Sorry for all the questions. Thank you.
    Reply
  8. Rows 7 thru 13 you say you increase each row by 2. When I read through the pattern I only see where you increase only one in the end of each row when you are doing sc, dc, sc. Where is the other "increase" done?
    Reply
    1. Hi! The other "increase" comes from the pattern: you start let's say with 43 stiches, and do SC, DC in every other stich, so you will have 22x2=44 stiches when you reach the end of the row. And then you will add the increase with the second SC in the last stich, resulting you have altogether 45 stiches in that row.

  10. Hello! Love your patterns and this one in particular!! If I wanted to extend the underbelly portion to cover more of the tummy area, should I just repeat the rows after adding arm holes but before body tapering? Is there a way you’d advise decreasing stitches to make it more snug around the belly? Thanks so much!!!

  11. Hi! Luv yr pattern - this is so cute as are yr puppies. Wanted to make this for my son's dog & possibly the neighbours mini pom & Other pup (can't think of name of species). I was trying to make the gauge swatch but ran into a problem - when I follow pattern for rows 1 & 2 (using ch 18) my swatch meas. 5"w. Should I use a smaller hook or less chains to start pattern. Sorry, am not very good at figuring these things out. Many tks. I read all the comments & did not see any pertaining to my question. U r a great designer & luv yr patterns. tk u for sharing them with us.

    1. Hi Helen! The gauge swatch slightly is larger than it needs to be so that when you measure you are only including inside stitches, not the outside stitches that are not uniform in shape, you will be wanting 14 sts (or 7 sc,dc sets) in 4 inches. If your whole swatch is measuring 5", I'm thinking you are pretty close to gauge. Hope this helps

  12. Hi, I'm currently making a size small and I'm have the hardest time reading thr Armholes part. After you do the first arm hole it tells you to repeat that 11 more times..thats not possible. There isn't that many stitches. Also you would have 4 holes? That doesn't make anysense to me. Can anyone help? I'm sorry of I didn't word this very well.

The stitch is super easy but the thought of ripping it all out and doing it again makes my head spin LOL! I don't want to do it unless I know exactly how to fix it!!!

Then I can only get 5 out of the 6 more decreases before I run out of chains. Help!!!!
        Reply
        2. Hi Emilee! Sorry you are struggling with this. Each row should have a total of 8 sc,dc sets plus the sc in last stitch. It sounds like you may be accidentally skipping more than 1 chain in between some of those. You could maybe try doing a solid sc foundation row (17 sts)...that may make it easier when following the pattern rows. Just make sure not to count that sc row in your gauge. Hope this helps!

  18. I was asked to make this for a very small dog. He’s 1lb, neck is 4.5” and chest is 9”. Should I attempt to decrease the pattern to a starting chain of 23?? I obviously don’t want it to be too small but they have a hard time finding something small enough for him.

  26. I'm not sure that I'm doing row for Armholes correct. In size M, after the last armhole, should you end with the same number of (sc,dc) as you started (6)? My mind is trying to keep it even, but to do so, I must decrease the number of sts skipped after the last chain. I've re-crocheted it several times & decided I must be doing something wrong. I'm excited to make this sweater for my neighbor's dog. Thank you!

  39. Row 22 should say repeat 17 more times (not 18) for size small and Row 23 should say repeat 16 (not 17) more times (for small). It’s the word “more” that would cause you to make too many stitches. Thank you.

    Reply
    1. Hi Sabrina, I was thoroughly lost as well when I got to “Rows 5 through (6,8,10). I read through the comments and found that no one had explained how to read this part of the pattern. I finally found an explanation on a completely different website and wanted to pass it along to you. It reads like this: If you are making the extra small, you crochet rounds 5 and 6. If you are making the small size, you crochet rounds 5 through 8. If you are making the medium size, you crochet rounds 5 through 10. So what is in the parentheses are the number of rows you need to crochet depending on what size sweater you are making. Now when you move on to the next step, you are on row 7 if making the extra small, row 9 if making the small and row 11 if making the medium. Hopefully this helps!

      1. I am very confused with this pattern. I am trying to make the medium size but when I go through to round (7,911 )my stitch is a lot more than 55.
        Reply
        1. Hi Alana! I'm sorry you are having trouble. I'm not sure why you would have a lot more than 55 sts...are you remembering to skip a stitch between the (sc,dc) clusters? That's the only thing I can think of without seeing it. If you need more in depth help, you can email support@hearthookhome.com or message the Heart Hook Home Facebook page.

  43. Can you please help? I’m on row 32 (making a size small). The skip first 2 stitches, does that mean the slip stitches or the first 2 actual stitches? Thank you in advance! I’m obsessed with this dog sweater! It’s SUPER CUTE!
    Reply
    1. I literally just finished the size small sweater today. You turn after the ch1 so you will be working the opposite end of the piece (the slip stitches will be at the end of row 32, not the beginning). Skip the first 2 stitches so your hook goes into the first sc after the first dc. You'll end row 32 before you reach the slip stitches from the previous row. Hope this helps. Love how mine turned out, need to make another one now.

I haven't been able to buy or crochet a dog sweater that will fit my boston terrier/pug mix since she's shaped like a barrel with virtually no neck. Any tips on how I could adapt this pattern to fit her better? I'm sure it will fit my little normally shaped schnauzer just perfectly the way it is written. Thanks! :)

  48. I am soooooooooo confused. I LOVE this pattern but am totally baffled. I am currently working on rows 9-13. I have done row 9 three times and can't seem to come up with 47 stitches. I only get 37. HELP!!!!

  49. I wish I could find a decent sweater for a large dog. My girl is 56lbs lab/poodle cross and I would love to make one for her.

  50. You just don’t understand how happy I got when you posted this... I just recently lost my job and I’m trying to desperately make things to sell to get my mortgage paid and get my girls and I by until I get another job lined up. Thank you so much, Ashlea

    1. My only question is for the decrease it says decrease down to 9 sts. I want to make sure that is 9 stitches and not 9 sets of the sc,dc. The pic it almost looks like 9 sets, but I'm not positive. Lmao
